Package: devscripts Version: 2.10.69 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/debdiff User: devscri...@packages.debian.org Usertags: debdiff
The Debian derivatives census scripts found a case where debdiff's
interaction with interdiff causes debdiff to fail. This is with an old
version of the sqlite3 source package from Maemo 4.1.2. Below are the
commands you can use to reproduce the issue. This issue occurs with both
Debian squeeze and wheezy, the package data below is for wheezy.
