Package: diffutils
Version: 3.2-7
Severity: serious
Tags: patch experimental upstream
Justification: fails to build from source
Diffutils doesn't build with eglibc2.16 due to gets finally being
removed but the gnulib in the package not knowing about this. The
patch has links to upstream bugs.
A new diffutils release with new gnulib is the right fix for this, but
this simple nobbling works in the meantime (and allows the arm64
bootstrap to progress)
