+Kodi from Debian
+----------------
+
+This package is different from the package you can build from the Kodi source
+you can download from https://kodi.tv (vanilla Kodi, from now on).
+
+This package uses external libraries such as libav distributed in Debian, while
+the XBMC project suggests using the libraries embedded in vanilla Kodi's source.
+
+This difference may cause problems not experienced with vanilla Kodi thus you
+are kindly asked not to report bugs directly to https://kodi.tv, but to
+Debian's Bug Tracking System (BTS):
+
+ https://bugs.debian.org/src:kodi
+
+You can get an overview of the package at Debian Tracker:
+
+ https://tracker.debian.org/kodi
+
+or ask your queestions in Debian Multimedia mailing list by e-mail:
+
+ debian-multimedia@lists.debian.org
