hi the fact that auctex deletes some of the files it ships in .deb is bad for 'debdelta', too
explanation : lets say you upload a new auctex, and send it into the archives; then my server prepares a 'delta' (from the older versions to the newest), that is stored in http://www.bononia.it/debian-deltas ; then users run 'debdelta-upgrade' on their PCs, and 'debdelta-upgrade' downloads from bononia all the deltas, and uses it and the installed version of the old 'auctex' to create the deb of the new 'auctex' when my 'debdelta' prepares 'delta' , it assumes that all (non conf) files listed in the old package will be unaltered and existent in the installation and this is not the case, so I have seen that indeed 'debdelta-upgrade' fails on 'auctex' a. -- Andrea Mennucc "E' un mondo difficile.
