	Then do it right. Create a orig.tar.gz file and a diff.gz
 file, and pretend that these are different Debian releases of an
 upstream apt release. At the moment; apt releases violate the
 packaging manual; I am not convinced that it be the manual rather
 than apt that should change. Especially since the diffs introduced
 are real (and small).
