+Building this package for Debian
+--------------------------------
+
+This source package need no special handling for normal package builds.
+
+
+Maintaining packaging build routines
+------------------------------------
+
+This source package wraps debhelper commands and other tedious parts of
+the build routines using the CDBS framework. Please refer to the actual
+makefile snippets included from debian/rules for details on their
+purpose and ways to override defaults. Additionally, makefile snippets
+included from below /usr/share/cdbs may also be documented in
+/usr/share/doc/cdbs/cdbs-doc.pdf.gz .
