Three chunks attempted in a patch from Robert. Two out of
three worked. One did not because the text had changed due
to re-writing a note that had some links to out-of-date
wiki pages.

Throughout the manual set, various areas talk about the Linux
distributions we support and the required packages among other
items that are tied to a distro. Debian had been missing except
from the list in the ref-manual that shows the releases we test
against.
I have attended to all areas where Debian needs to be mentioned
now.

updated to link into the section of manual and the wiki page
states that it is out of date. So, the manual should not point
