Hi,

Thank you for your suggestions and work.

As for the shipped README, although there's irrelevant information for
Debian users there's also a lot of useful information in it. I do not
perceive this as something that needs changing per se - if upstream would
change that sometime it would be nice but I won't be lobbying for it.

As for the README.Debian you supplied, I think it's useful and I will
include it in the next release, thanks. However, the section on changes
wrt the upstream release, I will leave that out. The information is
already contained in the Debian changelog, which is in Debian the
canonical place for such information to be documented. Repeating it in
README.Debian has the risk of it getting out of date and inconsistent.

Thanks again for your suggestions.


Cheers,
Thijs
