 .
   * Added an emtpy binary-arch target, following Policy requirements and
     and the Etch release standards (Closes: #395608)

     files should be sufficient (Closes: #344879)

     to make the document more current and up-to-date:

     (in the archived) and security support for it is no longer available.
     (Closes: #385420)
