+Making Packages
+---------------
+
+To make Debian packages:
+
+  1. Create new package directories under packages/debian if necessary.
+  2. Make a symbolic link in the distribution's root directory to keep the
+     Debian tools happy:
+
+     ln -s packages/debian/python2.4-parallel/debian/
+
+  3. Run the package builder:
+
+     dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
+
+  4. Locate and tidy up the packages in the parent directory of the
+     distribution's root directory.
