have used, & enjoyed, #kdiff3 as my default graphical diff app in all my various distros, having first discovered it in my default boot, :archlinux: :kde: , years ago. it has been quite an up & down ride though, coz when it works it's excellent, but over the long haul it has broken many times, partly or completely. for the past week or two it's been pissing me off again. though it launches, both standalone & when invoked from #Dolphin, as soon as i click the icon to begin the manual diffing, its GUI freezes & has to be closed. trying several recent versions via downgrade hasn't helped, & reverting its config file to default also hasn't. i've finally lost all patience with it, so have removed it, & now my default diff app is #Meld... which is a pity given it's GTK. i still have #Kompare installed, but only use it for simple things, given it is barely configurable & flexible compared to the other two. sassen frassen rassen.

#Kdiff3 shows you all the differences between two (or three!) files in a nice little graphical interface. Yes, I know I can use diff at the command line (and sometimes I do!), but for large files with many, but not that many differences, this provides a really nice way to dig through them.

Updated at haikuports/Haiku, KDiff3 1.12.3, available for 32bit and 64bit, enjoy! :)

Der Wechsel von Bullseye zu Bookworm auf dem Raspi4 ging mit dieser Anleitung erfreulich schmerzfrei:
sascha-syring.net/raspberry-pi…

… und auch wenn kein Datenträger den Geist aufgibt, ist es einfach praktisch, Backups zu haben. Bei den Optionen für die Aktualisierung der sshd_config hatte ich mich verwählt, konnte aber durch Vergleich¹ mit dem aktuellsten Backup überprüfen, dass aus der vorherigen Version bei der Aktualisierung nichts verlorengegangen war.

¹ Bequem remote aus einem Kontextmenü in Dolphin heraus mittels einer KDiff3 einbindenden Erweiterung.
