Hello,

Richard already answers this statement...

Actually it is possible to set a configure's option to compile and 
install both Frama-C and the plug-in Jessie coming with Why:

./configure --enable-external=why/frama-c-plugin
make
sudo make install (may require superuser right)

OK, this option is not indicated in file INSTALL but it is explained in 
the user manual.

Maybe in future releases. As a first step in that way, the recent 
Windows binary release contains Frama-C + Why + Alt-Ergo + a complete 
development environment).

They are up-to-date. That is exactly the contents of file 
INSTALL_WITH_WHY while the compilation instructions of Frama-C Boron 
(http://frama-c.com/install-boron-20100401.html) is the contents of the 
file INSTALL.
