+Install Instructions
+====================
+
+To complete the install, create your first Trac environment by running this
+command:
+
+ trac-admin /var/lib/trac/<project-name> initenv
+
+For security, trac relies on the webserver for authentication. The following
+command creates a password database for Basic Authentication with Apache 2:
+
+ htpasswd2 -c /etc/apache2/trac.htpasswd <user-name>
+
+Please adjust for the webserver of your choice, and refer to your webserver
+documentation.
+
+Now, all you need to do is to configure your webserver. The following is a
+configuration example for Apache 2 and CGI:
+
+ <Location "/cgi-bin/trac.cgi">
+ SetEnv TRAC_ENV "/var/lib/trac/<project-name>"
+ </Location>
+ <Location "/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/login">
+ AuthType Basic
+ AuthName "trac"
+ AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/trac.htpasswd
+ Require valid-user
+ </Location>
+
+Again, please adjust for the webserver of your choice.
+
+Fast-CGI users: you have to emerge and configure your Fast-CGI engine
+separately.
+
+You can also use Trac without having to install a webserver. See
+http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/wiki/TracStandalone to know more.
+
+Don't forget to update the configuration file! It is located at
+/var/lib/trac/<project-name>/conf/trac.ini. See its reference at
+http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/wiki/TracIni.
+
+More information (multiple projects setup, installation with Apache 2 and
+mod_python, lighttpd...) can be found on the Trac wiki:
+
+ http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/wiki/
+
+Upgrade Instructions
+====================
+
+If you are upgrading from a previous Trac version, please follow the
+instructions here:
+
+ http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/wiki/TracUpgrade
+
+If upgrading to Trac 0.10, you need to upgrade, resync, wiki upgrade and
+possibly review your Wiki pages for your Trac environments.
+
+Since 0.9, Trac uses sqlite-3 instead of sqlite-2. If you were using Trac 0.8.x
+or below, you have to upgrade your database files or else you won't be able to
+use Trac. You can issue the following commands, for each environment you have:
+
+ mv /var/lib/trac/<project-name>/db/trac.db \
+ /var/lib/trac/<project-name>/db/trac2.db
+ sqlite /var/lib/trac/<project-name>/db/trac2.db .dump \
+ | sqlite3 /var/lib/trac/<project-name>/db/trac.db
+ trac-admin /var/lib/trac/<project-name> upgrade
+ trac-admin /var/lib/trac/<project-name> resync
+ trac-admin /var/lib/trac/<project-name> wiki upgrade
+
+And review the trac.ini configuration file by comparing it to
+trac.ini.sample.
