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 ---------------------------------------------------------------- -rw-r--r-- root/root /usr/share/man/man6/gcompris.6.gz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
