+electrum (2.4.2+dfsg1-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ This is the first upload of Electrum 2.0+ in Debian. When upgrading
+ from a wallet created by an older version of Electrum, it is a good
+ idea to have both an offline (eg. paper) backup of your wallet seed,
+ as well as an electronic copy of your wallet file if you need to use
+ it with a pre 2.0 Electrum version.
+
+ The first launch of Electrum 2.0+ will upgrade your wallet to the new
+ format; this requires regenerating all of the addresses in your
+ wallet, and may take some time if you have a large wallet. Once the
+ upgrade is complete, you will need to restart Electrum in order for
+ any addresses to show up in the "Addresses" tab. The new format is not
+ readable by versions of Electrum prior to 2.0.
