+If you use grep-dctrl in a Debian package, you should depend on the
+grep-dctrl package and heed the following compatibility notes:
+
+   * Always call only the "grep-dctrl" executable.
+	Although the "grep-status" and "grep-available" symlinks
+	are installed by default, this may change in the future.
+	Those symlinks are meant for manual - not scripted - use.
+        
+   * Always specify an explicit file name
+        Don't rely on the implicit file name feature.  The system
+        administrator may have changed the default file name.
+
+   * Not all features have been with us in every version
+	Check if any of the features you use is mentioned in the
+	changelog.  Use a versioned dependency on grep-dctrl, if it
+	is necessary.
