To compile this code, please run ./configure; make in this directory. This will lead to the generation of several progams, which are detailed below. (The programs are all originally in src, but some get installed if 'make install' is run.) ddiff - Generates the debdiffs. Documentation is in ./doc/ddiff.1 (It's a man page, so run man -l on it.) dpatch - Applys debdiffs. Documented in ./doc/dpatch.1. debinfo - Prints out a little bit of version information about a debian package. It isn't really all that useful, it's undocumented, and it doesn't get installed. debmember - Prints out a member of a debian package. It's used by debcheck, but it's not documented or installed. debcheck.sh - Given two debian packages as command line arguments, this program displays uncompressed checksums of the control and data member. It's used for testing, and isn't installed by default. Other things to note: - The debdiffs are uncompressed by default... Give the -z option to compress them. Please let me know what's thought of this code. Tom Rothamel
