 Building
 
-The coreutils require minimal dependencies for building:
-
-· bindgen(1)
-· cc(1) with -idirafter
-· cp(1p)
-· cpp(1)
-· make(1p)
-· mkdir(1p)
-· rustc(1) or equivalent
-· sh(1p)
+The coreutils require a POSIX-compliant environment to compile, including a C
+compiler and preprocessor (cc(1) and cpp(1) by default) with the -idirafter
+flag, a Rust compiler (rustc(1) by default), bindgen(1), and a POSIX-compliant
+make(1) utility.
