There were some lintian warnings and I fixed those, that's why I bumped the version to -2.

I created the debdiff using the versions that can be found in mentors and the one in sid: dget -x https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/x/xfce4-equake-plugin/xfce4-equake-plugin_1.3.8.1-2.dsc dget -x http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/x/xfce4-equake-plugin/xfce4-equake-plugin_1.3.8-1.dsc The latter url I got from https://packages.debian.org/sid/xfce4-equake-plugin I just double checked, when I get the above two version and create a debdiff, and then download the debdiff from the unblock request (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?att=1;bug=857118;filename=debdiff_xfce4-equake_v138-1_v1381-2.diff.gz;msg=5) and then run a diff between those the files turn out to be exactly the same. Maybe you checked against the xfce4-equake-plugin_1.3.8.1-1.dsc version in mentors? If so, I apologise for the confusion.
