Rephrase backwards-compatibility message in README.Debiandebian/2.7-1
The message in README.Debian could give the impression that bash-completion still install files under /etc/bash_completion.d/, which it doesn't. This patch rephrases the message to clarify that: - bash-completion does not install files under /etc/bash_completion.d/ - bash-completion is able to (and will) use files under /etc/bash_completion.d/, which could have been installed by other packages; - Package maintainers are encouraged to move completion files to the right location, using dh_bash-completion. Thanks to Salvo Tomaselli for suggesting this change.
