Package: pristine-tar Version: 1.33 Severity: normal Hi,
When updating the "cloud-utils" package, the following warning was shown: $ pristine-tar commit ../cloud-utils_0.29.orig.tar.gz upstream warning: pristine-gz cannot reproduce build of ../cloud-utils_0.29.orig.tar.gz; storing 89% size diff in delta (Please consider filing a bug report so the delta size can be improved.) pristine-tar: committed cloud-utils_0.29.orig.tar.gz.delta to branch pristine-tar I've also tested the last version (1.34) from unstable and the result was the same. The deltas from previous versions had 1.6KB and 1.7KB. This one[1] reached 50KB[2]. I don't know if this is relevant or not, but that was the first repackaged tarball from upstream (using "Files-Excluded"[3]). There were some files under ".bzr/" folder that had to be removed. Regards, Tiago. P.s.: this looks to be the same bug as #540747 and #750215. Maybe those can be merged?
