 These scripts have been tested on Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, and Arch.
 
-### Manual Setup
-
-Use the system's package manager to install the following packages (some of which might already be installed in your system):
-
-```
-automake bc bsdmainutils curl gcc git libffi-dev libtool locales locales-all m4 netcat-openbsd pkg-config python python3 python3-pip python3-setuptools python3-testresources sudo wamerican-insane wget
-```
-
-Then clone the PaSh repository and run `setup-pash.sh` as follows:
-
-```sh
-git clone [email protected]:binpash/pash.git
-./pash/scripts/setup-pash.sh
-```
-
-As noted at the end of `setup-pash.sh`, make sure you set `PASH_TOP` pointing to the absolute path of the directory `pa.sh` resides (you can optionally place that in your `PATH`).
