Source: diffutils
Version: 1:3.7-5
Severity: wishlist
Dear maintainer,
there is a new upstream release available, cf.
<https://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=10031>.
The NEWS read as follows:
| * Noteworthy changes in release 3.8 (2021-08-01) [stable]
|
| ** Incompatible changes
|
| diff no longer treats a closed stdin as representing an absent file
| in usage like 'diff --new-file - foo <&-'. This feature was rarely
| if ever used and was not portable to POSIX platforms that reopen
| stdin on exec, such as SELinux if the process underwent an AT_SECURE
| transition, or HP-UX even if not setuid.
| [bug#33965 introduced in 2.8]
|
| ** Bug fixes
|
| diff and related programs no longer get confused if stdin, stdout,
| or stderr are closed. Previously, they sometimes opened files into
| file descriptors 0, 1, or 2 and then mistakenly did I/O with them
| that was intended for stdin, stdout, or stderr.
| [bug#33965 present since "the beginning"]
|
| cmp, diff and sdiff no longer treat negative command-line
| option-arguments as if they were large positive numbers.
| [bug#35256 introduced in 2.8]
Please update the package when you think it is due time.
Cheers,
Flo
