Sorry about that. I hope it's better now?

Ok, I thought that the header in the patch would be sufficient. Added
some more text to the changelog.

more <333!

Ahaha. Thanks for pointing this out.
Lunar, I'd like your advice on this issue then. It seemed to me that
your workflow has been described by Jake in this readme file and I
found it hard to follow. That's why I used my own recipe (which would be
compatible with `uscan`).
But let's discuss that here? I'm open to switch to any clear workflow as
long as it's properly documented :p

I tried my best to update this from the upstream source.

If that's not a blocker, I'd like to leave it as is.

Ok, I was not aware. I adopted the header style from the patches in the
Vidalia package. I hope that one was not outdated or anything :))
Cheers!
And thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanks :)
