Bug Description

Package diffs should be generated against the previous SPR in a DistroSeries, not the entire Distro.

See https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pm-utils/0.99.2-3ubuntu10 for an example of the uselessness of the current setup.

There is indeed room to improve the 'ancestry' lookup. It should only cross distroseries boundaries when there is no candidate available in that context.
