Package: diff
Version: 2.8.1-11
Severity: important

when running sdiff in interactive mode (with -o option), it fails in the 
end with the message "sdiff: subsidiary program `<editor>' failed" where 
<editor> is set by the EDITOR environment variable (or ed by default).

This seems to happen independently of the editor used (even /bin/true 
fails) and also with a version I compiled from GNU sources. The bug is 
not present in the woody version of sdiff (2.7).
