Bug Description
Binary package hint: devscripts
Currently I'm using the following script snippet to make a debdiff compatible for "patch -p1":
sed -i -r 's~^(---|\+\+\+) /tmp/\w+/~\1 ~g' foo.dsc.diff
Normally, debdiff uses interdiff to accomplish this, but only if there are diff files available. This is not the case for Debian/Ubuntu native packages at least (e.g. missingpy).
Does it make sense to add this functionality to the debdiff script?
