+Patching upstream sources
+-------------------------
+
+This package uses dpatch to manage all modifications to the upstream
+source. Changes are stored in the source package as diffs in
+debian/patches and applied during the build.
+
+To get the fully patched source after unpacking the source package, cd
+to the root level of the source package and run:
+
+    debian/rules patch
+
+Removing a patch is as simple as removing its entry from the
+debian/patches/00list file, and please also remove the patch file
+itself.
