Thanks for your suggestions Jérémy. I've added the docs from the source package, and added a README.Debian file in with some additional instructions. As regards the watch file, this is correct. Currently the download site gives a 403 Forbidden on the downloads directory: www.sphinxsearch.com/downloads and I've reported this as a bug to upstream. When this is made available, I'll add the watch file, but for now this is useless. New upload in place on mdn.
