Trivial and unimportant but still worth querying: A recent update provided diffutils v.3.12 and then later exploration of a mismatch on platforms revealed this to be a test verson and 3.11 to be current. I'm pretty certain that I did not request a test version (of anything) - so I overwrote 3.12 with 3.11 on the mismatched platform and everything is consistent within setup.ini and between platforms. It really doesn't matter at all - but, just for information, was 3.12 offered as current and then recently re-assessed as test? (Or did my finger slip .. ..?)
There were some issues with package update CI build jobs failing once diffutils 3.12 was promoted to current stable, not reproducible on desktop builds, so Jon kindly flipped the test switch, so I can have time to try to reproduce and fix the issue under CI, and see if there is a way to reproduce and fix it on the desktop.
