 libguestfs for Debian
 =====================
 
-The base.img file is not shipped as part of the libguestfs package
-because it contains copies of material from several other .deb
-packages. However, the script that is 
+libguestfs needs a supermin appliance to perform its work. To generate
+or update it, simply run:
 
-To generate or update this file, it, run the following command (as
-root):
+# update-guestfs-appliance
 
-# ( cd /usr/lib/guestfs; ./make.sh )
-
-I realize that this is a sub-optimal solution and promise to improve
-it in one of the next revisions.

+.TH LIBGUESTFS 8 "August 2011"
+.SH NAME
+update-guestfs-appliance \- update the supermin appliance used by
+libguestfs
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B update-guestfs-appliance
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+\fBupdate-guestfs-appliance\fP creates or updates the supermin
+appliance for use with libguestfs. It uses \fBfebootstrap\fP for this,
+therefore access to the package repository is needed.
+.PP
+A supermin appliance contains only lists of files and directories. The
+contents of the referenced files are only copied into an ad-hoc
+filesystem whenever libguestfs starts a virtual machine. Therefore,
+calling \fBupdate-guestfs-appliance\fP is only needed after libguestfs
+has been installed or when the filesystem layouts or dependencies of
+needed packages on the host system have been changed.
+.PP
+.SH FILES
+.BR /usr/lib/guestfs/make.sh
+(the script that does the actual work),
+.nh
+.nf
+.BR /usr/lib/guestfs/supermin.d/hostfiles
+.BR /usr/lib/guestfs/supermin.d/base.img
+.fi
+.hy
+.SH SEE ALSO
+.BR guestfish (1),
+.BR guestmount (1),
+.BR febootstrap (8),
+.BR febootstrap-supermin-helper (8).
+.SH AUTHOR
+\fBupdate-guestfs-appliance\fP and this manual page were written by
+Hilko Bengen <bengen at debian.org>, for the Debian project (and may be
+used by others).
