Hmm... it says the following in the same paragraph above the
lines that I added.

"Make sure there aren't any warnings issued in any of the
 package and deinstall stages..."

Is that sufficient?  If not, care to work up a patch?  I'd
be happy to commit it.  As can be evidenced from the patch
I supplied originally, I'm not much of a technical writer. :)
