+=====================
+
+.symbols file
+-------------
+
+Recent versions of telepathy-glib (>= 0.7.10) generate a sample version of the
+file libtelepathy-glib0.symbols at build time. This is not automatically used
+for anything, but it's a convenient way to update the Debian packaging for
+new symbols.
+
+When packaging new upstream releases, you can update the version
+that's actually used to build the package by copying it from
+telepathy-glib/_gen/ into the debian/ directory.
