+The bzr plugin does not seem to define the rcs_diff subroutine.
+I got the follow error after enabling recentchangesdiff:
+
+"Undefined subroutine &IkiWiki::Plugin::bzr::rcs_diff called at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki.pm line 1590."
+
+Grepping to verify absence of rcs_diff:
+
+ $ grep rcs_diff /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Plugin/{git,bzr}.pm
+ /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Plugin/git.pm: hook(type => "rcs", id => "rcs_diff", call => \&rcs_diff);
+ /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Plugin/git.pm:sub rcs_diff ($) {
+ /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Plugin/bzr.pm: hook(type => "rcs", id => "rcs_diff", call => \&rcs_diff);
+

+> recentchangesdiff to work, someone needs to implement `rcs_diff` for bzr.
