-Or install http://sourceforge.net/projects/skype4py/[Skype4Py], and build
-BitlBee with `--skype=1`.
+(the later from the unstable repo)
+
+and you don't have to compile anything manually.
+
+=== Installing under OS X
+
+- Install the necessary packages from ports:
+
+NOTE: You have to edit the Portfile manually to include the install-dev target,
+just append install-dev after install-etc.
+
+----
+# port -v install bitlbee
+----
+
+and you have to install `bitlbee-skype` and `skype4py` from
+source.
+
+=== Installing from source
+
+NOTE: bitlbee-skype by default builds and installs skyped and the
+plugin. In case you just want to install the plugin for a public server
+or you want to use skyped with a public server (like
+`bitlbee1.asnetinc.net`), you don't need both.
+
+- You need the latest stable BitlBee release (unless you want to use a
+  public server):
+
+----
+$ wget http://get.bitlbee.org/src/bitlbee-@BITLBEE_VERSION@.tar.gz
+$ tar xf bitlbee-@BITLBEE_VERSION@.tar.gz
+$ cd bitlbee-@BITLBEE_VERSION@
+----
+
+- Now compile and install it:
+
+----
+$ ./configure
+$ make
+# make install install-dev
+----
+
+- To install http://skype4py.sourceforge.net/[Skype4Py] from source
+  (unless you want to install the plugin for a public server):
+
+----
+$ tar -zxvf Skype4Py-x.x.x.x.tar.gz
+$ cd Skype4Py-x.x.x.x
+# python setup.py install
+----
+
+- Get the plugin code (in an empty dir, or whereever you want, it does
+  not matter):
+
+----
+$ wget http://vmiklos.hu/project/bitlbee-skype/bitlbee-skype-@VERSION@.tar.gz
+$ tar xf bitlbee-skype-@VERSION@.tar.gz
+$ cd bitlbee-skype-@VERSION@
+----
+
+- Compile and install it:
+
+----
+$ ./configure
+$ make
+# make install
+----
+
+This will install the plugin to where BitlBee expects them, which is
+`/usr/local/lib/bitlbee` if you installed BitlBee from source.
