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.
