+This will build and install **web-greeter** with [cx_freeze][cx_freeze]. Either `sudo make install_old`, which will use the old zippy way to install **web-greeter**; it's strongly recommended to not use the last one, as it depends on the actual python interpreter and its libraries. Update python or delete a library, and **web-greeter** won't work.
