i use next command for create debdiff:
debdiff --diffstat --exclude bacula.pot --exclude '*.po' \
--exclude configure --exclude ltdl.m4 --exclude fix-binutils-gold-linking.patch --wdiff-source-control bacula_5.2.6+dfsg-2.dsc bacula_5.2.10+dfsg-1.dsc > bacula-dsc-debdiff.txt

    ( haven't checked the debdiff output )

It doesn't sound like you're in a position to comment on its
suitability then?

FWIW from http://www.bacula.org/en/?page=news
  The 5.2.10 version is a significant bug fix release

How many of those fixes fit the acceptance criteria?  This:

including our first cut of AFS support.

certainly doesn't.

In upstream changelog about 70 changes and not all of them has a bug number, but at least 40 of them look like fixes for more or less significant bugs.
A few changes is backports from development branch.
Other changes are translates, build system for other platforms or non-linux specific bugs.


As i can see, only backported changes definetelly don't fit acceptance criteria:
 - Backport new StorageId code
 - New overhaul of xattr code.
 - Add rudimentary support for saving AFS acls.


But it will be very hard to apply all changes, except backported.

Adam
