+XZ Utils sources for Debian
+---------------------------
+
+This Debian package is developed in a public Git repository (see the Vcs-Git
+field of debian/control) based on XZ Utils’s repository on tukaani.org.
+To build from a git checkout:
+
+ debian/rules get-orig-source
+ mv xz-utils_*.tar.gz ..
+ debian/autogen.sh
+ debuild
+
+To build a released version, no special instructions apply.
+“dpkg-buildpackage” and “apt-get -b xz-utils” should work as usual.
