DESCRIPTION

       pull-debian-debdiff attempts to find and download a specific version of a Debian package and its immediate parent to generate a debdiff.

OPTIONS

       package
	      The source package to download and diff.

       version
	      The most recent of the two versions you want to diff.

	      If specified (default 1), the debdiff is against that many versions previous.

       -h, --help
	      Display the usage instructions and exit.

       -f, --fetch
	      Simply download the specified version and exit.

       -d DEBIAN_MIRROR, --debian-mirror=DEBIAN_MIRROR
	      Use  the	specified  mirror.   Should  be  in  the  form	http://ftp.debian.org/debian.	If the package isn't found on this mirror,
	      pull-debian-source will fall back to the default mirror.

       -s DEBSEC_MIRROR, --debsec-mirror=DEBSEC_MIRROR
	      Use the specified Debian security mirror.  Should be in the form http://security.debian.org.  If the package  isn't  found  on  this

	      Do not read any configuration files, or configuration from environment variables.

ENVIRONMENT

CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

       The following variables can be set in the environment or in ubuntu-dev-tools(5) configuration files.  In  each  case,  the  script-specific
       variable takes precedence over the package-wide variable.

	      The default value for --debian-mirror.
