I think that Håvard is getting at something important. Most projects have a Build, Test, Install section, which also doubles as a starting point for anyone trying to use the project. Since our Build/Install isn't really independent of OS/Distro packaging and implementation details, we should probably add something to the packaging page explaining this (and that most users want a pre-built image) - it is a bit unique for a project. This is due to the code being tightly coupled to OS implementation, but the typical user might not realize this.

Also, I didn't realize this packages readme existed. I have a list of links to some other downstream resources that I'll include a PR to shortly.

@holmanb, thanks for pointing out that. I have added documentation about it.
