Have seen diffs like this when vtp trunks change up/down state.
Formating is done by IOS for "show vlan", so it will be hard to fix splited lines in rancid.
You are not alone to dislike diffs like this.
In many IOS versions it posible turn of all line wrapping by setting "terminal length 0".
I think it's one way of make diffs from "show vlan" more readable.

Subject: RANCID is incorrectly parsing my Cisco IOS Firewall, adding linebreaks, joining lines, etc
Hi
Recently upgraded to RANCID 3.1 and I'm finding all our Cisco devices are coming up with new configs after every run due to rancid adding line breaks in some cases and in others it joins two lines of the config.
Any thoughts on why this might be going on? I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.
Thanks
Jason
