+This package uses quilt to manage all modifications to the upstream
+source. Changes are stored in the source package as diffs in
+debian/patches-applied and applied during the build. Please see:
+
+ /usr/share/doc/quilt/README.source
+
+for more information on how to apply the patches, modify patches, or
+remove a patch.
+
+If you patch a man page or other XML documentation in the package, it
+is important to include a patch both to the xml file and the resulting
+nroff or other sources in your patch. much of the man pages is
+installed in Multi-Arch: same packages, so the resulting documents
+need to be identical. The best way to guarantee this is to include
+the resulting document in the source.p
