Hi Bruce, A diffutils release is definitely overdue, and is on my list. However, the list of open "issues" is in need of attention: http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/pkgreport.cgi?package=diffutils Once that list is in shape and most of its issues have been addressed, I can make a release in a day or so. Do you know anyone who would like to invest in the triage work? If no one steps up, I'll get to it eventually, after making an imminent grep release, and addressing the sed issues that are blocking its overdue release.
