Package: latexdiff
Version: 1.3.1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
On upgrading from buster to bullseye I note that latexdiff is now
affected with a bug which causes it to emit latex source which
does not compile, if the original source contained \cite{} (or indeed
\citep{} and \citet{}). The bug has been reported elsewhere and is described
clearly and in some detail at
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/574280/latexdiff-with-cite-commands-gives-output-with-apparently-mismatched-braces
The stackexchange discussion provides a minimal working example and notes why
the bug occurs. It also suggests work-arounds.
Best wishes
Hugh Pumphrey
