+- Update to version 3.0:
+  + Bug fixes
+   - diff once again prints the required "\ No newline at end of
+     file" line when at least one input lacks a newline-at-EOF and
+     the final hunk plus context-length aligns exactly with the end
+     of the newline-lacking file.
+     [bug introduced between 2.8.7 and 2.9]
+  + Changes in behavior
+    - In context-style diffs, diff prints a portion of a preceding
+      "function" line for each hunk, with --show-function-line=RE
+      (-F) or --show-c-function (-p).  Now, it trims leading blanks
+      from such lines before extracting a prefix.  This is useful
+      especially when a function line is so far indented that the
+      name itself would be truncated or not included in the
+      limited-width substring that diff appends.
+    - diff once again reports a difference with the diagnostic
+      "Binary files A and B differ" when at least one of the files
+      appears to be binary.  From 2.8.4 through diffutils-2.9, it
+      printed "Files A and B differ".
+- Changes from version 2.9:
+  + New features
+    - New diff option --suppress-blank-empty.
+    - Bring back support for `diff -NUM', where NUM is a number,
+      even when conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001. This change
+      reverts to the behavior of GNU diff 2.7 and earlier. This is
+      a change only when conforming to POSIX 1003.1-2001; there is
+      no effect when conforming to older POSIX versions.
+    - sdiff now understands '1' and '2' as synonyms for 'l' and
+      'r'.
+  + Changes in behavior
+    - sdiff and diff3 now invoke diff, not $(bindir)/diff
+  + Administrivia
+    - updated gnulib support
+- Drop diffutils-no_binary_mode.patch: fixed upstream.
+- Drop diffutils-2.8.1-i18n-0.2.patch: this doesn't apply anymore,
+  the only reference I can guess about it goes back to 2004, and
+  commit 8983b8d9 upstream is about handling multibyte characters
+  in side-by-side format. So I'm assuming it's fixed. This also
+  means we can drop the call to autoreconf.
+- Drop diffutils-2.8.7-autoconf.patch: this is not needed anymore.
+- Remove AutoReqProv: it's default now.
+- Stop touching the main pages in %build.
+- Use %configure and %makeinstall macros.
