There is/was a long discussion about upstream README files on debian-devel. The problem with README files in Debian binary packages is, that users expect - and should expect - important information in it. Btw. most packages do not come with a README on my system (~1900 packages, only ~870 README{,.gz} files). Cheers, WB -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
