[daisy] Upgrade issue 1.5->2.0.1

[Karel Vervaeke]

Did you use GNU tar for unpacking Daisy?

(The instructions say 'use GNU tar if you experience problems unpacking
Daisy'.  We should rephrase that, since the problem is not experienced
during the unpacking - it's only when starting the repository that the
problem becomes apparent.)

HTH,
Karel
