Thanks Russ for the heads-up.

Judging from the release notes, it would not be too hard to update the Policy's
description of how Debian follows and deviates from the FHS.

By the way, I wonder if the debian-policy package is the best place for
shipping a copy of the FHS.  I just checked out the bzr repository that
contains its sources, and it builds out of the box (build-depends on xmlto and
fop).  Perhaps it would deserve its own package ?

Have a nice day,

Charles
