+Installing the newest version of Pyosmium
+-----------------------------------------
+
+It is recommended to install Pyosmium via pip:
+
+    pip install --user osmium
 
-The version of osmosis that comes with your distribution should be sufficient
-in most cases.
+Nominatim needs a tool called `pyosmium-get-updates` that comes with
+Pyosmium. You need to tell Nominatim where to find it. Add the
+following line to your `settings/local.php`:
 
-If you want to install it by hand, get the latest version from the
-[Osmosis website](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis). Then
-tell Nominatim to use this version by adding the following line to
-your `settings/local.php`:
+    @define('CONST_Pyosmium_Binary', '/home/user/.local/bin/pyosmium-get-changes');
 
-    @define('CONST_Osmosis_Binary', '/usr/local/bin/osmosis');
+The path above is fine if you used the `--user` parameter with pip.
+Replace `user` with your user name.
