Hm. Why? What's bad about etc-update?

I dislike using diff.

Hm. dispatch-conf uses diff as well and etc-update can be configured
to use a different program.

On my desktop I use meld (all graphical) and on my server I use vimdiff. dispatch-update takes care of trivial merges

So does etc-update.

(changes in cvs headers or commentaries)

Ah, okay, that's a bit better. As far as I know, etc-update only
automerges changes in whitespace.

and changes in files that I have never edited automatically.

That's nice.

dispatch-conf supports automatic use of rcs (revision control system) so I can revert my configs if I need to..

That's also nice.
