Package: nd
Version: 0.8.2-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
NEWS is listed in debian/docs so dh_installdocs gzips and
installs it - despite the fact it's currently 0 bytes big.
"zless" seems to get confused with such files and spouts
garbage at stdin. So it'd be preferable to not install this
file until it is useful.
