Public bug reported: Please sync diffutils 1:3.5-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)
Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception: diffutils is seeded in every Ubuntu flavor. The new version adds a --color option (like git diff or ls --diff) (LP: #1486128) Other changes can be seen at http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/diffutils.git/tree/NEWS http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/diffutils.git/log/ If this FFe is approved, I would need sponsorship. Changelog entries since current yakkety version 1:3.3-3: diffutils (1:3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release. * Drop all patches, as none of them is required anymore. * There are now --color and --palette options. Closes: #396485. * Exit status of diff for binary files that differ is now 1, not 2, as mandated by POSIX. Closes: #737180. * Option --no-dereference is now documented in manpage. Closes: #804544. -- Santiago Vila <[email protected]> Wed, 31 Aug 2016 23:01:00 +0100 ** Affects: diffutils (Ubuntu) Importance: Wishlist Status: New ** Changed in: diffutils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1619516 Title: FFe: Sync diffutils 1:3.5-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/diffutils/+bug/1619516/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
