In fact, the next version changes where save files are stored, so this
problem will go away. But I have in any case added a note to
README.debian in case people actually want to transfer their old save
file. (If a subsequent version breaks savefiles again, I'll amend the
note in README.debian to avoid this problem reoccurring.)
