I've written difftastic packaging instructions: https://difftastic.wilfred.me.uk/packaging_difftastic.html The different distros have taken different approaches, so I'm trying to help with common gotchas — don't forget the man page! Feedback welcome, especially if you've ever packaged something 🙂

I really like the MELPA model of packaging directly from git. It solves the problem of forgetting to release something -- just merge a PR and you're done. It also makes version number bumps much less important.
