retitle 772529 Add internal pdiff patching without red
severity 772529 wishlist
thanks
Hi,
that's an interesting guess but you figured it wrong. Ed (actually red)
is used to patch the index files following the pdiff mechanism.
That said, I was never really happy with the current solution. I will
have a look at how to implement it internally, or maybe using the apt
library if I can get access to it without restrictions.
Regards,
Eduard.
