Hi Raul,

Your explanation is absolutely reasonable. If this could be documented in
'debian/README.debian', it will hopefully avoid future questions.

I hope upstream can be encouraged to clean up how it outputs results, I am sure
they know what they mean, but most others have not got the time to decipher
such confusion. :-)

I have marked the package as 'confirmed' ready for DD review and possible
upload.

Regards

Phil
