uupdate: could not find diffs from version 20060804-2 to apply!


This is happening because you don't have a built package in your main directory. Try going back into the older version's directory and running

dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

Once that is done, delete the directory for the untarred new version source and then run the uupdate command again. It will find the *.diff you just created and apply it. The debian directory is in the diff as it is not part of the upstream source.
