Comment 15 for bug 219630

geode debdiff:
 - why is it necessary to move around the -amd symlink in the SRU, and thus mess with new Conflics/Replaces:?
 - what is the rationale for dropping all the DEB_* settings in debian/rules?

Judging by the noisy changelog diff, this is really a backport of the latest version in intrepid/sid, as opposed to a minimally intrusive patch to fix just this issue. I guess the important bits are the additional ID in geode.ids and moving "script" from -amd to -geode perhaps?

Please supply minimal debdiffs which can be reviewed and avoid any unnecessary change, which might just cause trouble later on.

nsc debdiff: same like above, but amplified by 10. Adding new packages (-dbg), changing the build system, changing config.{guess,sub} are things which are inappropriate for an SRU.
