Hi Bryan,
thanks for your bug report!

Yes, you are right: as it is, that warning message is a bit obscure.

I've just prepared a patch (that specifies the full path to the
README.Debian that should be consulted for a more detailed explanation
of the /dev/tty issue).
If nothing unexpected comes out of the few tests that I am performing
right now, this patch should be part of the next upload.

Thanks again for reporting the issue.
Bye.
