Fixed in 2.8.1-18.fc8. diffutils-2.8.1-19.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update diffutils' Just a quick heads up, that the -19 version seems to have resolved a problem with running 'make check-all' on R (http://www.r-project.org/). It's is not on a mirror yet, so I got it directly from Koji at: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=23465 I posted on this issue earlier today on the r-devel list: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2007-November/047397.html Thanks to Tom Callaway for referencing this bug. diffutils-2.8.1-19.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. *** Bug 420791 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
