--- Begin Message ---Package: tkcvs Version: 8.2.3-1 Severity: wishlist The tkcvs source package bundles a copy of Paul Mackerras' tkdirdiff program in the contrib/ subdirectory. As of the current version of tkcvs in sid, the bundled script has the header # Copyright (C) 1999-2002 Paul Mackerras. All rights reserved The "dirdiff" package has what would appear to be a newer version... # Copyright (C) 1999-2004 Paul Mackerras. All rights reserved. ...but diffing the two shows some code in tkcvs's version that is not present in the dirdiff package's, so it seems the two have diverged somewhat. It is confusing to have what amounts to two slight variations of the same program (/usr/bin/tkdirdiff vs. /usr/bin/dirdiff) installable from the same (Debian) repository. Ideally, these two versions would be merged into a new one containing the best of both; short of that, either one of them should be dropped from the repository, or a clear explanation offered to the user on why they would want one or the other. (Note that this situation is similar to the one that existed with the tkdiff and tkcvs packages until recently; the former package was dropped in favor of the program bundled in the latter.) Please re-assign this bug to the dirdiff package if appropriate.
