Subject: Bug#321036: diff -L undocumented in --help and man page

Package: diff
Version: 2.8.1-11
Severity: minor

Hi,

diff -L is neither documented in --help nor in the man page.
It's documented in the info page that the man page refers to, but that's
part of diff-doc and not installed with diff by default.

Once -L was documented in --help (and there was no own man page, but one
provided by the LDP that documented -L) in diff 2.7 (as distributed with
SuSE 6.4).

Regards, Fabian
