It's still building but looks like it works fine. It should be built 
against the opencore-amr[nw]b packages on Debian, though.

Do you mean debian/README.upstream-upgrade? It reads quite well, but 
maybe it should be made more unambigous what the single steps are, 
e.g. by enumerating them. For example, the indented code in line 29 
doesn't have anything to do with the step described in line 26, but 
rather with that in line 31.

Let's wait for the binNMUs, we are not in a hurry. BTW, do you know if 
the binNMUs will be scheduled still before the current version has hit 
testing or just after that? I mean, because if we had binNMUed 
packages in both unstable and testing, we wouldn't break anything.
