| joerg | mason: when you use a full qualified filename then that file has to exist. My question was when you do a `diff --from-file=/dev/null foo` vs a `diff --from-file=/tmp/ foo` - note you may NOT use a non-existent filename, in no context for diff | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| joerg | diff -u /tmp/nosuchfile foo makes no sense | 00:09 |
| gnu_srs | fsr_: No I don't. Only the ones that really matters, and when Debian are finished with moving files to /usr, we can selectively do so (if wanted) :) | 00:15 |
| gnu_srs | And no usrmerge links would be needed :) | 00:16 |
| mason | joerg: agreed, diff -u /tmp/nosuchfile foo makes no sense, but I wasn't sure what you were going for | 00:26 |
| DelTomix | gnu_srs: seems I also misunderstood - I thought same as fsr. So what is the intended purpose of what you are suggesting? Which packages for what reasons? | 01:12 |
