+  <para>
+    Coq libraries should be installed in
+    <literal>$(out)/lib/coq/${coq.coq-version}/user-contrib/</literal>.
+    Such directories are automatically added to the
+    <literal>$COQPATH</literal> environment variable by the hook defined
+    in the Coq derivation.
+  </para>
+  <para>
+    Some libraries require OCaml and sometimes also Camlp5. The exact
+    versions that were used to build Coq are saved in the
+    <literal>coq.ocaml</literal> and <literal>coq.camlp5</literal>
+    attributes.
+  </para>
+  <para>
+    Here is a simple package example. It is a pure Coq library, thus it
+    only depends on Coq. Its <literal>makefile</literal> has been
+    generated using <literal>coq_makefile</literal> so we only have to
+    set the <literal>$COQLIB</literal> variable at install time.
