+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

+# OK, there are some very old Linux standards that say that any binaries in a /bin or
+# /sbin directory (and the directories themselves) should be group bin rather than
+# group root, unless a specific group is really needed for some reason.
+#
+# I can't find any mention of this in more recent standards docs, and always thought
+# that it was pretty cosmetic anyway (hey, if there's a reason -- fill me in!), so
+# it's possible that this ownership change won't be followed in the near future
+# (it's a PITA, and causes many bug reports when the perms change is occasionally
+# forgotten).
+#
+# But, it's hard to get me to break old habits, so we'll continue the tradition here:
