 Obtaining skopeo
 -
-`skopeo` may already be packaged in your distribution, for example on RHEL/CentOS ≥ 8 or Fedora you can install it using
-```sh
-$ sudo dnf install skopeo
-```
-on RHEL/CentOS ≤ 7.x:
-```sh
-$ sudo yum install skopeo
-```
-for openSUSE:
-```sh
-$ sudo zypper install skopeo
-```
-on alpine: 
-```sh
-$ sudo apk add skopeo
-```
-
-
-Otherwise, read on for building and installing it from source:
-
-To build the `skopeo` binary you need at least Go 1.9.
-
-There are two ways to build skopeo: in a container, or locally without a container.  Choose the one which better matches your needs and environment.
-
-### Building without a container
-Building without a container requires a bit more manual work and setup in your environment, but it is more flexible:
-- It should work in more environments (e.g. for native macOS builds)
-- It does not require root privileges (after dependencies are installed)
-- It is faster, therefore more convenient for developing `skopeo`.
-
-Install the necessary dependencies:
-```sh
-# Fedora:
-sudo dnf install gpgme-devel libassuan-devel btrfs-progs-devel device-mapper-devel
-
-# Ubuntu (`libbtrfs-dev` requires Ubuntu 18.10 and above):
-sudo apt install libgpgme-dev libassuan-dev libbtrfs-dev libdevmapper-dev
-
-# macOS:
-brew install gpgme
-
-# openSUSE
-sudo zypper install libgpgme-devel device-mapper-devel libbtrfs-devel glib2-devel
-```
 
-Make sure to clone this repository in your `GOPATH` - otherwise compilation fails.
-
-```sh
-$ git clone https://github.com/containers/skopeo $GOPATH/src/github.com/containers/skopeo
-$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/containers/skopeo && make binary-local
-```
-
-### Building in a container
-Building in a container is simpler, but more restrictive:
-- It requires the `docker` command and the ability to run Linux containers
-- The created executable is a Linux executable, and depends on dynamic libraries which may only be available only in a container of a similar Linux distribution.
-
-```sh
-$ make binary # Or (make all) to also build documentation, see below.
-```
-
-To build a pure-Go static binary (disables devicemapper, btrfs, and gpgme):
-
-```sh
-$ make binary-static DISABLE_CGO=1
-```
-
-### Building documentation
-To build the manual you will need go-md2man.
-```sh
-Debian$ sudo apt-get install go-md2man
-Fedora$ sudo dnf install go-md2man
-```
-Then
-```sh
-$ make docs
-```
-
-### Installation
-Finally, after the binary and documentation is built:
-```sh
-$ sudo make install
-```
