I've found by just attempting to run the F14 and F15 {make,apply}deltaiso
executables that the F14 version of makedeltaiso seems to work normally, though
F14's applydeltaiso complains:
applydeltaiso_f14: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.7' not found (required by
applydeltaiso_f14)
The F15 versions both fail due to the missing liblzma.so.5, as expected. Would
the difference between F14's
glibc-2.13-1 and F15's glibc-2.13.90-8 make F15's makedeltaiso fail even if
liblzma.so.5 was installed? Just getting that to work would save quite a bit of
time. Ideally, I'd like to find a way to make this work without any such outside
support, though.
