-Packaging
-=========
-
-Varnish Cache packaging files are kept outside of the main distribution.
-
-The main reason for this is to decouple the development work from the packaging work.
-
-We want to be able to tag a release and do a tarball release without having
-to wait for the packagers to finish their work/changes.

-
-Official packages
------------------
-
-The official Debian and Redhat packages are built by the Varnish Cache team
-and made available on https://packagecloud.io/varnishcache/ .
