-Building this package for Debian
---------------------------------
+CDBS+git-buildpackage
+---------------------
 
-This source package uses quilt to apply and remove its patches.  Please
-refer to /usr/share/doc/quilt/README.source for information about how to
-use quilt for source packages.
+This source package uses CDBS and git-buildpackage.  NMUs need not (but
+are encouraged to) make special use of these tools.  In particular, the
+debian/control.in file can be completely ignored.
 
+More info here: http://wiki.debian.org/CDBS+git-buildpackage
 
-Developing this package for Debian
-----------------------------------
 
-The source of this package is developed using git and the helper tool
-git-buildpackage, with all official releases tagged and signed and
-binary diffs of tarballs stored using pristine-tar.  This is documented
-below /usr/share/doc/git-buildpackage/manual-html/ .
-
-
-Setting DEB_MAINTAINER_MODE=1 enables additional build routines helpful
-during development of the package, but unfit for normal builds.  This
-typically includes the CDBS feature of auto-updating debian/control with
-CDBS-related build-dependencies, which is forbidden by Debian Policy as
-build environment must not change during automated builds.
-
-
-Maintaining packaging build routines
-------------------------------------
-
-This source package wraps debhelper commands and other tedious parts of
-the build routines using the CDBS framework.  Please refer to the actual
-makefile snippets included from debian/rules for details on their
-purpose and ways to override defaults.  Additionally, makefile snippets
-included from below /usr/share/cdbs may also be documented in
-/usr/share/doc/cdbs/cdbs-doc.pdf.gz .
