AFAIK, you do not _require_ diffs, you prefer them. Logically this port was not a patch to previous version, it was built from scratch. Also, last commit broke qalculate patch stage (there are 2 pairs of same patches committed under different names, I don't know how this happened). So, my own CVS desyncronised with FreeBSD ports. This way I have more chances to make a mistake when diff'ing. -- regards, Sergey Akifyev <http://dpx.niibaca.ru>; AGAVA Software Company <http://www.agava.com>; PGP key available from: ftp://ftp.gascom.ru/pub/PGP-keys/asa.txt
