Package: debdelta Version: 0.27 Severity: important debdelta seems to be having a dependency on the `ar` application, which is part of the binutils package.
But debdelta has no dependency on the binutils package. So with binutils not installed through debdelta dependency, debdelta fails to run properly. Attached is a screenshot of the problem.
