This package has gone unmaintained for several years both in Debian
and at upstream (https://github.com/jmacd/xdelta), and the website
(xdelta dot org) is defunct. We do however have lots of packages in
Debian depending on this, so I intend to sort out the situation and
thus taking ownership to avoid duplicate/conflicting work.

We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of
xdelta, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is
attached.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 1118225@bugs.debian.org,
and the maintainer will reopen the bug report if appropriate.
