I think that we ought to feel free to modify upstream files. That's one of the things that makes Debian different from other distributions, which latter prioritise minimising changes to upstream's code. README.Debian is the correct place for instructions that are essentially Debian-specific, indeed. But then I think README ought to be patched to contain a reference to README.Debian so the user knows to look there :) I'd prefer not to install a README to /usr/share/doc at all, than to leave it full of things that aren't relevant to Debian users. -- Sean Whitton
