  * Reviewed messages printed (at different verbosity levels) .
  * Inside the delta, the internal script uses shell pipes,
     to reduce usage of temporary files .
  * Set Homepage: http://debdelta.debian.net
  * etc/sources.conf : use debdeltas.debian.net, thanks to Paul Wise
     for the suggestion, and thanks to the Bononia people (Closes: #517942).
  * xdelta3 (>= 0y) can use a FIFO for the input source (a.k.a
     the old version of the file). When using '--delta-algo xdelta3'
     the delta now, in its internal script, can process all old files 
     in one pipe, w/o using many chunks stored in temporary files. Such
     deltas are marked by a new internal feature 'needs-xdelta3-fifo'.
     This is disabled by '--disable-feature xdelta3-fifo'
  * debdelta/debdeltas : store incomplete delta files as delta_tmp_ , are
     renamed when they are completed (and tested, and signed, if required)
