 h3. Using CDBS
 
+First of all, the CDBS class is only for libraries using setup.rb (or
+install.rb). If the library you want to package doesn't use setup.rb, you'll
+have to either (1) add it yourself and make sure it works as expected, or (2)
+simply not use the class and package manually.
+
+If you want to use the CDBS class, you have to depend on ruby-pkg-tools. Then,
+in your debian/rules, you'll have to include it, and uploaders.mk if you are in
+the Ruby maintainers team. If you also include debhelper.mk, your rules will
+resemble this example:
+
+<pre><code>
+#!/usr/bin/make -f
+
+include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk
+include /usr/share/ruby-pkg-tools/1/class/ruby-setup-rb.mk
+include /usr/share/ruby-pkg-tools/1/rules/uploaders.mk
+</code></pre>
+
+There are a number of configuration variables you can set. For more
+information, see the "CDBS class information page":ruby-pkg-tools/cdbs.html.
