i'm not that familiar with the NEWS file but if this is shown it's already too 
late and the new files are already nearly "deployed" or am i wrong?

Furthermore the NEWS file is only telling to use the 8.0.10 from 
https://people.debian.org/~taffit/owncloud/ where 8.1.5 is also needed before 
going to 8.2.2

That is probably something you really shouldn't do. I think there is a reason 
why this check there is in place.

Maybe some one at the oC developers mailing list can tell you more.
