Comment 11 for bug 477017

Julien,

Thanks for your detailed instructions. I followed your instructions to
the letter, starting from a fresh source pulldown. However, the debdiff
at the end contains the doc changes - even though I only touched the py
script. Does this look OK to you? I have attached the generated
debdiff.

Cheers, Frank.
