- I'd suggest to remove the README file or replace it with a pointer to the 
manpage? :)

- from the README.Debian: "This program is only used internally in order to 
display a progress bar during actions." - do you really mean actions as in 
FAI_ACTION or do you mean installation or what do you mean?

- the debian/copyright points to /u/s/c-l/GPL, while the software is GPL2+. In 
sid, /u/s/c-l/GPL is GPL3+

- do you plan to upload this to debian or do you think this should become part 
of FAI or what do you think regarding this package? ;)


regards,
	Holger
