--- Begin Message ---Subject: vc-rcs rcsdiff -u1 -> -u -1 Date: Sat, 2 Jan 2010 22:49:43 GMT In Emacs 23.1, doing vc-diff on an RCS file results in an error with GNU diff 2.8.1 (or later): /usr/bin/diff: `-1' option is obsolete; use `-U 1' .. The *Messages* buffer reports: vc-do-command: Running rcsdiff -q -p -u1 maintainers...FAILED (status 2) I could not quickly tell where the invocation was in vc-rcs.el, but afaik replacing -u1 with -u 1 (or -U 1) is the solution. (The workaround for users is to set _POSIX2_VERSION=0 in the environment.) karl
