The Lintian tag says: If upstream provides a changelog, it should be accessible as /usr/share/doc/pkg/changelog.gz. So I guess you should install this specific README file (in which upstream records its changes) as /usr/share/doc/tkinfo/changelog.gz. Best wishes, Guido van Steen I was thinking along those lines anyway. Thanks for the encouragement! I've now used a sed extract for changelog.gz, as I want to preserve the upstream README as originally named.
