Hi Bubulle,
thanks for your sanity check on the descriptions. As somebody who
belongs to the packaging team but also has no idea what all this text is
explaining I definitely agree to your opinion - but I can not fix this
myself (for the same reason you have trouble creating a patch).
Steffen, could you (or someone who is using this package to your
knowledge) please work out a shorter description of maximum two
paragraphs with no more than 10 lines if possible. Everything else
belongs to README.Debian or something similar.
Kind regards
Andreas.
