Package: debdelta Version: 0.50+2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
if xdelta3 is not installed (perhaps either xdelta or bsdiff are enough), debdelta doesn't work, even if they are just recommended: # debdelta-upgrade Error: applying of delta for libogre-1.8.0 failed: : This patch needs xdelta3, at least version 3.0y.
