The latter, but see below for an (IMHO) easier way to set it up.

I have a severe dislike for non-executable build instructions on wikis,
because they are always out of date and are continually duplicated with
only tiny changes. I think all the pages you listed should go away :-)

fso-testing and fso-unstable feeds on that site.
