+#### Creating installer packages
+
+The `cpack` utility can be used to create installer packages for different OSs.
+It is more comfortable for the end-user to receive an installer package rather
+than being able to download only the binaries, for Windows it is also necessary
+because of the `botan-3.dll` file that is needed to run the software.
+
+To create an installer package *after* having built your source tree with one of
+the above commands, and using the corresponding operating system, use:
+
+```bash
+# MacOS .sh, .tar.gz, .pkg
+cpack -G "STGZ"
+cpack -G "TGZ"
+cpack -G "productbuild"
+
+# Linux .tar.gz, .deb, .rpm
+cpack -G "TGZ"
+cpack -G "DEB"
+cpack -G "RPM"
+
+# Windows .zip
+cpack -G "ZIP"
