Encap 2.0: Files in the Package Directory

Files directly in the Package Directory of an Encap 2.0 package are not processed when installing or removing a package. Package creators often include informational files in this directory, such as a patch they used against the stock source code or a sample configuration file.

Any files in the Package Directory are ignored, except for a few files which have special meaning. One example of this is the README file, which is displayed by the package manager before the package is installed.
