Package: rcs
Version: 5.7-18
Severity: normal


The "--unified" option is recognized but has no effect. Specifying a value
for --unified does not change the number of lines for context; the number
of lines remains at 3 irrespective of the number specified after --unified.

rcsdiff is a wrapper around diff, and diff doesn't support it (as
documented in its man page).  If you want to get this changed, feel
free to file a wishlist bug against diff.
