Package: apt Version: I have the same wish as is #213551. I tested xdelta for creating such diffs. I divided deb package to data.tar.gz and control.tar.gz and then created patchs by commands like: xdelta delta -9 oldversion/data.tar.gz newversion/data.tar.gz PatchFromOldToNew
and resulting patch was about 35 - 75 % smaller then newversion/data.tar.gz (I get similar result for control.tar.gz). I tested only 4 package pairs, but perhaps these results are interesting for developers. I am using Debian SID, kernel 2.4.22 Tonda Míšek
