Sure, I do follow derivates-bugs in the BTS.
I do not wish to drop the compression override because I use this in an
extremely uncommon way
I was about to forward the change to BTS to drop the delta soon, but thanks for
following up on the issue here.
The problem is in debhelper indedeed and also breaks other builds like groff's
one.
Please see the fix for debhelper attached, but i think cvs could also
drop the compression override.
** Summary changed:
