+This code is expected to be compatible with PostgreSQL versions 9.4 and higher. It was tested with REL\_11\_STABLE branch.
 PostreSQL must be installed to compile the extension. The path to PostgreSQL executables must be set up (try running 'pg_config' to test).
 
 This code requires C++11. It was tested with GCC 4.8.5 (standard in RedHat at the time of this writing), GCC 8.2.0, GCC 9.2.0, Apple LLVM version 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4) and version 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.8).
 
+This code depends on [datasketches-cpp version 1.0.0-incubating](https://github.com/apache/incubator-datasketches-cpp/releases/tag/1.0.0-incubating)
+
+There are two slightly different ways to build this extension: from a PGXN distribution or from two separate packages: datasketches-postgresql and datasketches-cpp (either from GitHub or from [Apache archive](http://archive.apache.org/dist/incubator/datasketches/))
