 The cross-compilation of ORTE from GNU/Linux system
 ---------------------------------------------------
 
-The Debian package mingw-w64-i686-dev provides GCC
-cross-compiler and libraries. The actual package
-used for the build was mingw-w64-i686-dev_3.0.0-2_all.deb.
+The Debian package mingw-w64-i686-dev provides GCC cross-compiler and
+libraries. After installing that package, one can compile orte for
+windows as follows:
+
+  ./configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32 CC=i686-w64-mingw32-gcc
+  make
+  make install
