Thanks for the report, but that is unlikely to be a problem with this
upstream diffutils package, since the man page (diff.1) is
automatically generated from the output of diff --help, and the build
machinery to do that has been in place for over a decade. I would
suspect whatever installed your diff man pages or the configuration of
your "man(1)" program -- maybe it is searching in the wrong place.

I'm closing the auto-generated ticket in our bug-tracking system, but
please reply here (we'll still see it) if you think there is something
we can improve on this front.
