Upgrading Debian explained in release-checklist
While trying to package Gnuastro for Debian, I noticed that Lintian is
giving me some strange errors. So after consulting with Aurélien Jarno, he
suggested to update my debian release from Jessie to Buster (current
"testing") so my Lintian gets updated. This fixed the issue, so I have
added a short explanation of the process in the release checklist on how to
update your Debian release.

Steps necessary to Package Gnuastro for Debian.
+ - It would help to use the most recent versions of packages in Debian. To
+ do that, you can update the `/etc/apt/sources.list' file. You can get
+ the current releases from this webpage:
+ http://ftp.debian.org/debian/. See which release is currently the
+ `testing' release and use replace its name with the one that is
+ currently present in that file. Afterwards, run these commands:
+
+ $ sudo apt-get update
+ $ sudo apt-get upgrade
+
+ A restart should help in making sure everything that has been updated is
+ being used.

- If you don't already have the Git repository, clone it with the
following command. A `gnuastro' directory will be built, for the moment
don't go in it.
