Bug#714772: kde-window-manager: README.Debian for KWin is completely out of date
Package: kde-window-manager
Version: 4:4.8.4-6
Severity: normal
The README.Debian is written against 4.0. The information is in all aspects not
relevant any more, for example it says that compositing support is still
immature and disabled by default. The instructions on how to enable do not
reflect the current situation at all.
My recommendation is to just remove this README. Given that the information is
completely wrong it might also be a good idea to remove it in an update from
stable and oldstable.
Credits for this bug report goes to http://sources.debian.net which allowed me
to explore what Debian is shipping ;-)
