Hello! While trying to do something useful for Debian by fixing an RC bug, I needed a graphical diff and merge tool. I found kdiff3 for KDE. I wondered why it is not yet packaged, so it became my first public package. If there's a better graphical diff already in Debian, I'd really like to know (and have kdiff3 sponsored nevertheless).
Package name : kdiff3 Version : 0.9.71 URL : http://kdiff3.sourceforge.net License : GPL Description: compares and merges 2 or 3 files or directories KDiff3 compares two or three input files and shows the differences line by line and character by character. It provides an automatic merge facility and an integrated editor for comfortable solving of merge conflicts. KDiff3 allows recursive directory comparison and merging as well. The package lintian and linda clean. Some of the entries in Build-Depends were neccessary to build it with pbuilder. I wonder why. (Just have a look at them and consider sponsoring meanwhile. ;o) ) The package as I'd like to have it uploaded can be found here: http://user.cs.tu-berlin.de/~eikes/debian/kdiff3/ Another package - as pdebuild built it - is not installable on my system due to dependency problems. dpkg says: "kdiff3 depends on libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4)", but I could not satisfy this with the most recent unstable libc. Ciao, Eike
