Description: high-quality block-sorting file compressor - utilities
Description-md5: 1e71313ce794d3de1e3bc63ac58885b5
Task: minimal
Build-Essential: yes

Test data:
$ echo file content > f1 && echo filx content > f2
$ bzip2 f1 f2

Other setup:
$ git clone https://gitlab.com/bzip2/bzip2.git
$ ln -nv ./bzip2/bzdiff bzcmp
$ chmod u+x ./bzcmp

In regards to bzcmp, this is a very simple way to check for the issue:
# ubuntu's
$ bzcmp f1.bz2 f2.bz2
cmp: invalid --ignore-initial value '/tmp/bzdiff.8kHv0B9tBJ'
cmp: Try 'cmp --help' for more information.
# original's (https://gitlab.com/bzip2/bzip2)
$ ./bzcmp f1.bz2 f2.bz2
- /tmp/bzdiff.vpXGvPfv5I differ: char 4, line 1

In regard to bzdiff, this is a very simple way to check for the issue:
# ubuntu's
$ bzdiff -y -W20 f1.bz2 f2.bz2
diff: invalid option -- ' '
diff: Try 'diff --help' for more information.
# original's (https://gitlab.com/bzip2/bzip2)
$ bash bzip2/bzdiff -y -W20 f1.bz2 f2.bz2
file  | filx

I think the culprit is the /usr/bin/bzdiff script. Here the difference between 
ubuntu's and the original one
$ diff -W150 --suppress-common-lines /usr/bin/bzdiff bzip2/bzdiff

  Description: high-quality block-sorting file compressor - utilities
  Description-md5: 1e71313ce794d3de1e3bc63ac58885b5
  Task: minimal
  Build-Essential: yes
  
  Test data:
  $ echo file content > f1 && echo filx content > f2
  $ bzip2 f1 f2
  
  Other setup:
  $ git clone https://gitlab.com/bzip2/bzip2.git
  $ ln -nv ./bzip2/bzdiff bzcmp
  $ chmod u+x ./bzcmp
  
  In regards to bzcmp, this is a very simple way to check for the issue:
  # ubuntu's
  $ bzcmp f1.bz2 f2.bz2
  cmp: invalid --ignore-initial value '/tmp/bzdiff.8kHv0B9tBJ'
  cmp: Try 'cmp --help' for more information.
  # original's (https://gitlab.com/bzip2/bzip2)
  $ ./bzcmp f1.bz2 f2.bz2
  - /tmp/bzdiff.vpXGvPfv5I differ: char 4, line 1
  
  In regard to bzdiff, this is a very simple way to check for the issue:
  # ubuntu's
- bzdiff -y -W20 f1.bz2 f2.bz2
+ $ bzdiff -y -W20 f1.bz2 f2.bz2
  diff: invalid option -- ' '
  diff: Try 'diff --help' for more information.
  # original's (https://gitlab.com/bzip2/bzip2)
  $ bash bzip2/bzdiff -y -W20 f1.bz2 f2.bz2
  file  | filx
  
  I think the culprit is the /usr/bin/bzdiff script. Here the difference 
between ubuntu's and the original one
  $ diff -W150 --suppress-common-lines /usr/bin/bzdiff bzip2/bzdiff
