 Maybe you want to test this is working. So download a test language, [[Install language data using packaging]]. Then [[Install quick tests]] can make you sure.
+If you know you need the HFST or CG3 modules, packages are available, or see [[Installation of grammar libraries]]. You may also be interested in the many tips at [[Bash completion]].
 If you are developing, now you can [[Install language data by compiling]] or [[How to bootstrap a new pair]]. If you are not, [[Install language data using packaging]] and go speak many languages :)
