[Pkg-pascal-devel] Packaging PasDoc 0.16.0

Hi All,

I tried to package PasDoc 0.16.0 to experimental but got the following issue:

The issue is that there is a variable called USE_DIFF_TO_COMPARE that shoudl be
set to true, but it looks like it is ignored when set and exported in
debian/rules.

Should I patch the file?
