Rancid in FreeBSD ports break on FreeBSD 13.0

Hi,

Perhaps I should not report this because the current version of Rancid
is 3.1, but the version in FreeBSD pkg is still 2.3.8. Anyway..

With the upgrade to FreeBSD 13.0, this old version of Rancid broke.
Root cause seems to be the use of "diff -u -4" in control-rancid.
I'm not sure what '-4' does; could not find it in the man pages of diff.

Anyway, omitting it makes things work again. I should just install from
the repository, but "not today".

Hey. -N sets the number of lines of context. at least two forms have
appeared over time; -N, -uN. Why the need for change, I do not know.

I expect configure to have found the right options. Did you re-install
from source? do you have multiple versions of diff?

I only see 3.13.1 in the repos.

The machine is in an inaccessible place (radio-tower, now double
inaccessible because of COVID) and I simply run pkg update on FreeBSD
every so often, and run an upgrade when I must.
Stangely, it was stuck with the old version of rancid from pkg and pkg
wasn't complaining.

I un-installed rancid, installed rancid (now 'rancid3' in pkg) and all
is well.

I don't know how this package got stuck on the old version, but now all
is well. Apologies for crying wolf.

Geert Jan
