+This package may include either wpa_supplicant, hostapd, or both. See
+README file respective subdirectories (wpa_supplicant/README or
+hostapd/README) for more details.
+
+Source code files were moved around in v0.6.x releases and compared to
+earlier releases, the programs are now built by first going to a
+subdirectory (wpa_supplicant or hostapd) and creating build
+configuration (.config) and running 'make' there (for Linux/BSD/cygwin
+builds).
