Details

Description:

The squashfs-tools package comes with nearly no documentation, only the help output of the programs themselves. Several concepts are only explained in text files in the source package. I suggest to add these files to the package and write them to /usr/share/doc/squashfs-tools.

These are the minimum files required for learning the usage:
USAGE
ACTIONS-README

These files explain the details of newly added features over the releases and could also be added:
CHANGES
README-<currentversion>
RELEASE-READMEs/*

Additional info:
* this is about squashfs-tools 4.5-1
