+Packaging hints for binary package distributors
+===============================================
+
+Although the source of the bison package comes as a single package,
+in distributions of binary packages the installed files should
+be split into two packages:
+
+ bison-runtime
+ Contents: Runtime libraries and programs.
+ Audience: Anyone who wants to run internationalized programs
+ that contain Bison-generated parsers.
+
+ bison
+ Contents: Tools and documentation for developers that use Bison.
+ Audience: Anyone who wants to develop programs that use parsers.
+ Dependencies: requires bison-runtime.
+
+The 'bison-runtime' binary package is much smaller than the 'bison'
+binary package. It should be included in any distribution that
+contains localized programs that use the diagnostics contained in
+Bison-generated parsers.
+
+If you want to install both packages at the same time, you simply do
+at the toplevel directory:
+
+ ./configure
+ make
+ make install
+
+After installation, the file
+
+ $prefix/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/bison-runtime.mo
+
+belongs to the bison-runtime package; all other installed files belong
+to the bison package.
