NAME
debpatch - Applies a patch to recreate a debian package.
SYNOPSIS
debpatch [OPTION]... DELTA FROMFILE TOFILE
debpatch [OPTION]... DELTA / TOFILE
debpatch --info PATCH
DESCRIPTION
This program is designed to apply a patch (DELTA) to a Debian package
(FROMFILE) and create the Debian package (TOFILE). If the Debian
package (FROMFILE) was installed in the host system and the .deb file
is not available, then the argument (FROMFILE) may be substituted by
the keyword / : then debpatch will get the needed data from the host
filesystem.
OPTIONS
--info PATCH

--no-md5

-v verbose (can be added multiple times).
-d print full traceback on Python errors; save useful info in
temporary files in case that a delta fails.
-k keep temporary files (use for debugging).
-A --accept-unsigned
accept unsigned deltas.
--gpg-home
specify a different home for GnuPG, default for root is
/etc/debdelta/gnupg while for other users is unset. See
