Usually the duplication happens because there's a small change between
the entries, e.g. a spelling correction. Other times it's not
duplication, but a substantive change to the NEWS entry, so those really
should be duplicated.
I can't spot a change in the example you gave, so it's probably a change
to the white space. The comparison code tries to ignore those changes,
but it doesn't always get it right.
Sometime I should put the code on Github so others can fix bugs like
this. It's currently in a private SVN repository (and has been since I
wrote it about 16 years ago).

Hi!
Thanks for this service! It is very helpful to know what is being developed.
I distribute the content to other venues and I noticed some times that the
updates are duplicated.
For example, the sentence "‘is.R()’ is deprecated as no other S dialect is
known to be in use (and this could only identify historical dialects, not
future ones)." is duplicated in different days:
Day 1:
https://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-devel/NEWS/2024/03/07#n2024-03-07
Day 2:
https://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-devel/NEWS/2024/03/09#n2024-03-09
I tried to look up how to avoid duplications with Blosxom
<http://blosxom.sourceforge.net/> but I didn't find a way.
It would be great if this could be further improved to avoid this
duplication.
Thanks!

Years ago Duncan set up a nightly job to feed RSS based off changes to
NEWS,
borrowing some setup parts from CRANberries as for example the RSS
'compiler'.
That job is currently showing the new \I{...} curly protection in an
unfavourable light. Copying from the RSS reader I had pointed at this since
the start [1], for today I see (indented by four spaces)
CHANGES IN R-devel INSTALLATION on WINDOWS
The makefiles and installer scripts for Windows have been tailored to
\IRtools44, an update of the \IRtools43 toolchain. It is based on GCC
13
and newer versions of \IMinGW-W64, \Ibinutils and libraries (targeting
64-bit Intel CPUs). R-devel can no longer be built using \IRtools43
without changes.
\IRtools44 has experimental suport for 64-bit ARM (aarch64) CPUs via
LLVM
17 toolchain using lld, clang/flang-new and libc++.
Can some kind soul put a filter over it to remove the \I ?
Thanks, Dirk

Reader. It's been a while...
