Version numbers not displayed in diff

[Anderson, Robert H - MWT]

I figured it out. It appears that the version of rcsdiff I had was not
producing the output that cvsweb was expecting. I have downloaded and
compiled rcs tools and the newly compiled version seems to work as expected.
The new and old version of rcs tools are both 5.7, but I am not sure what
options the old version was compiled with. Thanks for your help.

I'm running freeBSD-CVSweb 2.0.6. Using gnu diff. Here the ouput from my
apache error log...

Is this the same output you get? Thanks,

What version of FreeBSD-CVSweb are you running?  2.0.6?

Could you try adding the following line as the first thing inside the "while
(<$fh>)" loop around line 3000 and send me the output generated in the
Apache error log:

   warn("diff: '$_'\n");

It seems that we're not able to parse the revisions from the headers
generated by your diff.  What's your diff(1), BTW, GNU/HP (diff --version)?
