install various things. Part of this is compiling xapian, which may
take a *long* time (subsequent deployments should be much faster)
+* To support invalidating the Varnish cache, ensure that there's a
+ value for `VARNISH_HOST` in `general.yml` (normally this would be
+ `localhost`). You will also need to update your Varnish server to
+ support PURGE requests. The example configuration provided at
+ `config/varnish-alaveteli.vcl` will work for Varnish 3 and above. If
+ you leave `VARNISH_HOST` blank, it will have no effect.
