Seems like gzip didn't compress the files in the exact same way, even if
the resulting size was the same:
$ diff -burN t t2
Binary files t/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/changelog.Debian.gz
and t2/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/changelog.Debian.gz differ
Binary files t/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/NEWS.Debian.gz and
t2/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/NEWS.Debian.gz differ
-rw-r--r-- 1 lnussbaum grenoble 10286 2008-01-23 22:35
t2/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/changelog.Debian.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 lnussbaum grenoble 1592 2008-01-23 22:35
t2/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/NEWS.Debian.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 lnussbaum grenoble 10286 2008-01-23 22:35
t/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/changelog.Debian.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 lnussbaum grenoble 1592 2008-01-23 22:35
t/usr/share/doc/docbook-xsl-doc-html/NEWS.Debian.gz
zdiff doesn't show any difference.
But if the size is the same, why would the Installed-Size differ? I have
no idea. I've copied the source and the binary packages to
gluck:~lucas/docbook-xsl.{normal,bdfh}, if you want to have a look.
