+  Quick start install and remove project #{Project_details.name}, as root:
+    rake setup                                  # install #{Project_details.name}
+    rake resetup                                # reinstall #{Project_details.name}
+    rake remove_package                         # clobber/remove #{Project_details.name}, all versions
+  alternatively to install as a gem:
+    rake gem_create_build_install               # create gemspec; build gem, &; install gem, for #{Project_details.name}
+
+  NOTE: these install options DO NOT setup #{Project_details.name} dependencies for:
+  LaTeX(XeTeX) pdf output; or
+  databases (postgresql or sqlite3) for #{Project_details.name} search
+  should you wish to produce outputs that depend on them
+  (on Debian for example this is the work of the debian installer)
