Additionally, when removing one of those files that got duplicated because
debdiff missed them, debdiff does not spot the removal either:

$ debdiff  --from *_8.1-1_*deb --to /export/work/pbuilder/result/*_8.1-2_*deb
File lists identical (after any substitutions)


Alhough:

$ debdiff --show-moved --from gcompris-data*_8.1-1_*deb --to
/export/work/pbuilder/result/gcompris-data_8.1-2_*deb

Files only in first set of .debs, found in package gcompris-data
