-We recommend that you add the URL for the package's home page to the package
-description in <filename>debian/control</filename>. This information should be
-added at the end of description, using the following format:
-</para>
-<screen>
- .
- Homepage: http://some-project.some-place.org/
-</screen>
-<para>
-Note the spaces prepending the line, which serves to break the lines correctly.
-To see an example of how this displays, see <ulink
-url="&url-eg-desc-upstream-info;"></ulink>.
-</para>
-<para>
-If there is no home page for the software, this should naturally be left out.

-Note that we expect this field will eventually be replaced by a proper
-<filename>debian/control</filename> field understood by <command>dpkg</command>
-and <literal>&packages-host;</literal>. If you don't want to bother
-migrating the home page from the description to this field, you should probably
-wait until that is available. Please make sure that this line matches the
-regular expression <literal>/^ Homepage: [^ ]*$/</literal>, as this allows
-<filename>&packages-host;</filename> to parse it correctly.
+We recommend that you add the URL for the package's home page in the
+<literal>Homepage</literal> field of the <literal>Source</literal> section
+in <filename>debian/control</filename>. Adding this information in the
+package description itself is considered deprecated.

<literal>svn+ssh://</literal>) and how it points to the
