++This package uses a form of source build based on DBS. To setup the
++source, run "debian/rules setup". This will extract the pristine source in
++build-dir/, apply patches from debian/patches/ and split the package
++scripts from debian/packages.d/ into their component files.
++
++A few cavaets. Modifying the source in build-tree/ or the package files in
++debian/, will not be preserved after the "clean" target is run. Actual
++files for packages are in debian/packages.d/ and will be regerated after
++being modified.
++
++To create patches for the source, you can remember several steps. There
++are two targes for handling source. The "unpack" target, will simply
++unpack the tarball(s) into build-tree/ and "patch" will apply all patches
++from debian/patches/. If you make any changes you can generate a new patch
++using the "make_patch" target. This will move your current sources under
++build-tree/, unpack the source+patches again, and then generate a diff
++between the two. Note, you should run the "clean" target in the
++build-tree/ source before doing this, to get a clean patch.

++  * Convert to using a db style source format. The silo upstream tarball
++    contains some binary files that get changed during build. This makes

++  * Merged the conf check into the silo program itself. Right now it
++    verifies irregardless. Next version I'll make it have an option to
++    turn that off, or ignore failures.
++  * This is not a new upstream. The pools setup does not allow me to do a

++    a .0 extended version to be > one without...dpkg is good for something
