Notes regarding this package
----------------------------

This package, from version 1.1-13, follows the stardata-common 
policy. Thus it uses register-stardata to register this catalogue to 
astronomy programs available in the system, converting this dataset to
their own data formats and uninstalling them when removing those programs or
this catalogue.

If an astronomy program is installed that can use the Gliese data,
register-stardata stores the generated files in /var/lib/<astronomy_package>
and it makes a symlink to this file from
/usr/share/<astronomy_package>/gliese.dat,
removing both when uninstalling this package.

---------------------------------------------------------
It can also be used by other astronomical software which can understand
the 'Standard for Documentation of Astronomical Catalogues' (available at
several places including http://vizier.u-strasbg.fr/doc/catstd.htx).
