 Dear package maintainer,
 
-thanks for packaging i3. By doing so, you are improving your distribution and i3 in general.
+thanks for packaging i3. By doing so, you are improving your distribution
+and i3 in general.
 
-Please read the file DEPENDS now, so you know which libraries are necessary and where to
-get them from if your distribution does not already have packages for them.

-Please make sure the manpage for i3 will be properly created and installed in your package.
-On debian, this looks like this:
+Please make sure the manpage for i3 will be properly created and installed

-	# Compilation
-	$(MAKE)
-	$(MAKE) -C man
+Please check the i3-sensible-{editor,pager,terminal} scripts and modify them if
+necessary. The former two provide fallbacks in case $PAGER or $EDITOR is not
+set (which might be more common than you think, because they have to be set in
+~/.xsession, not in the shell configuration!) while the latter tries to launch
+a terminal emulator. The scripts are most prominently used in i3-nagbar, which
+alerts the user when the configuration is broken for some reason. Also,
+i3-sensible-terminal is used in the default configuration.
 
-	# Installation
-	$(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/ install
-	mkdir -p $(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/usr/share/man/man1
-	cp man/i3.1 $(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/usr/share/man/man1
+If your distribution has a mechanism to get the preferred terminal, such as the
+x-terminal-emulator symlink in Debian, please use it in i3-sensible-terminal.
 
-If you got any questions, ideas, hints, problems or whatever, please do not
-hesitate to contact me. I will help you out. Just drop me an E-Mail (find the address at
-http://michael.stapelberg.de/Kontakt, scroll down to bottom), contact me using the same
-address in jabber or ask on our IRC channel (#i3 on irc.twice-irc.de).
+On debian, compilation and installing the manpages looks like this:
+
+	autoreconf -fi
+	mkdir -p build && cd build
+	../configure
+	make -j8 install
+
+Please make sure that i3-migrate-config-to-v4 and i3-config-wizard are
+installed with i3. The Perl script is necessary to (automatically) convert v3
+configs to v4. The wizard provides the possibility to create a keysym-based
+config with the user’s preferred modifier and should be started on the first
+start of i3 (it will automatically exit if it finds a config file).

+If you have any questions, ideas, hints, problems or whatever, please do not

 Thanks again for your efforts,
