 GNU Health for Debian

+The gnuhealth-client package provides the `gnuhealth` command, which is a
+wrapper around `tryton-client`.
+If a config and/or a profiles file wasn't found, it will create new default
+files that are configured for a GNU Health (Tryton) server running on the same
+machine.
+In case the server is not on the same machine, the user will have to change
+the server name during the first startup, but port number, database name and
+user will already be defaulted in.
 
+The gnuhealth metapackage allows for easy installation of everyting needed to
+run a GNU Health instance on a single machine (it installs gnuhealth-server
+and gnuhealth-client)
