+This package uses quilt to manage all modifications to the upstream source.
+Changes are stored in the source package as diffs in debian/patches and
+applied during the build.
+
+In order to get the fully patched source after unpacking, change to the root
+level of the package and run:
+
+  $ quilt push -a
+
+The last patch listed in debian/patches/series will become the current patch.
+
+To add some more changes, run the above command (quilt push -a). Remember to
+set QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches, either as an environment variable or as a
+parameter in ~/.quiltrc. Then, create a new patch by typing: 
+
+  $ quilt new <patch>
+
+where <patch> is a descriptive name for the patch, used as the filename in
+debian/patches.
+
+Then, for every file that will be modified by this patch, run:
+
+  $ quilt add <file>
+
+before editing those files.  You must tell quilt what files will be part of
+the patch with 'quilt add' before making changes. If you don't do this, then
+you will likely break quilt. After editing the files, make sure you run:
+
+  $ quilt refresh
+
+to save your changes in debian/patches.
+
+Alternately, if you already have an external patch and you just want to add
+it to the build system, run quilt push -a and then:
+
+  $ quilt import -P <patch> /path/to/patch
+  $ quilt push -a
+
+(add -p 0 to quilt import if needed). <patch> as above is the filename to use
+in debian/patches. The last quilt push -a will apply the patch to make sure it
+works properly.
+
+To remove an existing patch from those that will be run, use:
+
+  $ quilt delete <patch>
+
+You may need to run quilt pop -a to unapply patches first before running this
+command.
+
+If there are any other issues, consult the perldoc for quilt. It is also
+accessible online at http://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/howto/quilt.html
