DetailsSummary and Info:
In line 24, the default DIFFPROG is vimdiff. I propose a more portable vim -d, as it is more portable and more likely to work for a wider usage. Steps to Reproduce: My installed version of Vim does not recognize vimdiff, but works perfectly with vim -d. I changed the DIFFPROG variable to vim -d to allow intended behavior. |

Not trying to say one way or the other if this should be changed but I'd just like to point out that on the vim package in [extra] /usr/bin/vimdiff is just a plain old symlink to /usr/bin/vim. I tested manually deleting it and recreating it with "ln -s /usr/bin/vim /usr/bin/vimdiff" and it works as expected. Try creating a symlink on your vim and see if it doesn't work.
