* Unpack the packages in a temporary directory.
- mkdir /temporary-dir and cd /temporary-dir
- tar xvzf qucs-<version>.tar.gz first and then `cd qucs-<version>'
- tar xvzf qucs-core-<version>.tar.gz and `mv qucs-core-<version> qucs-core'
* Slightly modify and rebuild package.
- Modify the lines marked with "release specific" in the `configure.ac'
file.
- Run `sh autogen.sh' first in the qucs-core directory and then in main
directory.
