| It is often a good idea to put text information files (`README's,
| changelogs, and so forth) that come with the source package in
| `/usr/share/doc/<package>' in the binary package.  However, you don't

| package, of course!

If the INSTALL file contains both building and installation
instructions, and how to set up the package, what is then the correct
way to handle that?

Cut and paste the relevant portions into README.Debian or something?
