Hi Martin! First of all, thanks a lot for looking at this, it's very nice to 
have upstream checking this stuff :-D

According to the debian changelog, README.Debian was removed in 4:4.6.2-1. The 
only version that's still in Debian of this file in in Squeeze, which is the 
current oldstable, ie, half-deprecated.

If that's the case, desktop users should have switched at least to Wheezy now.
Or maybe it was another file you where talking about?

Kinds regards, Lisandro.
