Package: devscripts Version: 2.12.6 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/debdiff
Dear Maintainer, debdiff fails to process some 3rd-party DEBs: $ debdiff AdbeRdr9.5.3-1_i386linux_enu.deb AdbeRdr9.5.4-1_i386linux_enu.deb > diff01.diff debdiff: fatal error at line 1021: Cannot write /tmp/lNEZ0MYwIL/control: Permission denied (debdiff executed with sudo finishes without errors, but it seems to be a bad practice).
