If you're accepting wishlist requests, I'd very much like to also see an option to show the difference between the previous dist version of the conffile and 'my' current version. (If I've rewritten the conffile from scratch, what I want to see is the difference between the two Debian versions, so I can decide whether I want to make equivalent changes. But if I've only made minor changes to the conffile, I want to see what those minor changes were so I can reapply them on top of the new Debian version.) -M- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
