Like all Debian packages the documentation is in
/usr/share/doc/<packagename> (in this case fossology-common)
That directory contains the following

changelog.Debian.gz - changelog for the Debian package
copyright           - copyright and license info
INSTALL.gz          - upstream install document
INSTALL.multi.gz    - upstream multi-system install document
README              - upstream README file
README.Debian       - Debian specific README

Where are you looking?

Yes this is mentioned at the bottom of the upstream INSTALL document 
mentioned above.

You need to configure apache, as explained in the upstream INSTALL doc and 
the README.Debian doc.

There is a list in README.Debian

Any ideas on how we could have made it easier for you to have found the 
above?

Thanks,
