- update to 205:
* Fix a file(1)-related regression where .changes files that contained
non-ASCII text were not identified as being .changes files, resulting in
seemingly arbitrary packages on tests.reproducible-builds.org and elswhere
not comparing the package at all. The non-ASCII parts could have been in
the Maintainer or in the upload changelog, so we were effectively
penalising anyone outside of the Anglosphere.
(Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#291)
* Don't print a warning to the console regarding NT_GNU_BUILD_ID changes in
ELF binaries.

- - update to version 204:
- Don't run the binwalk comparator tests as root (or fakeroot) as the
latest version of binwalk has some security protection against doing
precisely this.
- If we fail to scan a file using binwalk, return 'False' from
BinwalkFile.recognizes rather than raise a traceback.
- If we fail to import the Python "binwalk" module, don't accidentally report
that we are missing the "rpm" module instead.
- Use dependencies to ensure that "diffoscope" and "diffoscope-minimal"
packages always have the precise same version.
- update to version 203:
- Improve documentation for --timeout due to a few misconceptions.
Add an allowed-to-fail test regarding a regression in directory handling.
- Tidy control flow in Difference._reverse_self a little.
- Fix diffing CBFS names that contain spaces.

- Tidy control flow in Difference._reverse_self a little.
- Fix diffing CBFS names that contain spaces.
- update to version 202:
- Don't fail if comparing a nonexistent file with a .pyc file (and add test).
(Closes: #1004312)
- Drop a reference in the manual page which claims the ability to compare
non-existent files on the command-line. This has not been possible since
version 32 which was released in September 2015. (Closes: #1004182)
- Add experimental support for incremental output support with a timeout.
Passing, for example, --timeout=60 will mean that diffoscope will not
recurse into any sub-archives after 60 seconds total execution time has
elapsed and mark the diff as being incomplete. (Note that this is not a
fixed/strict timeout due to implementation issues.)
(Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#301)
- Don't return with an exit code of 0 if we encounter device file such as
/dev/stdin with human-readable metadata that matches literal, non-device,
file contents. (Closes: #1004198)
- Correct a "recompile" typo.
- Fix/update whitespace for Black 21.12.

- update to version 201:
- If the debian.deb822 module raises any exception on import, re-raise it as
an ImportError instead. This should fix diffoscope on some Fedora systems.
Thanks to Mattia Rizzolo for suggesting this particular solution.
(Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#300)

file is compressed using zlib", it might not actually be. In this case,
don't traceback, and simply return the original content.
(Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#299)

to, for instance, not duplicating the full filename in the primary
diffoscope's output.

str.format.

files, or if they are named .xml.
(Closes: #999438, reproducible-builds/diffoscope#287)
- Don't reject Debian .changes files if they contain non-printable
characters. (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#286)

not exist, but include a comment in the diff as a result.

- Fix inverted logic in the assert_diff_startswith() utility.
- update to version 190:
- Don't raise a traceback if we cannot de-marshal Python bytecode to support
Python 3.7 loading newer .pyc files.
(Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#284)
- Fix Python tests under Python 3.7 with file 5.39+.
- Skip Python bytecode testing when "file" is older than 5.39.

open_archive returned successfully. This prevents, amongst others, an
AttributeError traceback due to PGPContainer's cleanup routines assuming
that its temporary directory had been created.
(Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#276)
- Ensure that the string "RPM archives" exists in the package description,
regardless of whether python3-rpm is installed or not at build time.
- Fix the LVM Macho comparator for non-x86-64 architectures.

temporary directory handling in a previous version.

- Move diffoscope.versions to diffoscope.tests.utils.versions.
- Use assert_diff in tests/comparators/test_rdata.py.
- Reformat various modules with Black.
- Stop using the deprecated distutils module by adding a version
comparison class based on the RPM version rules.
- Update invocations of llvm-objdump for the latest version of LLVM.
- Adjust a test with one-byte text file for file(1) version 5.40.
- Improve the parsing of the version of OpenSSH.
- Add a --diff-context option to control the unified diff context size.

- Also ignore, for example, spurious "fwGCC: (Debian ... )" lines in output
from strings(1).
- Only use "java -jar /path/to/apksigner.jar" if we have a .jar as newer
versions of apksigner use a shell wrapper script which will obviously be
rejected by the JVM. Also mention in the diff if apksigner is missing.
- Pass "-f" to apktool to avoid creating a strangely-named subdirectory and
to simplify code.
- If we specify a suffix for temporary file or directory, ensure it starts
with a "_" to make the generated filenames more human-readable.
- Drop an unused File import.
- Update the minimum version of the Black source code formatter.
- Support parsing the return value of squashfs versions which discriminate
between fatal and non-fatal errors.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:python/diffoscope?expand=0&rev=30
- New features and bug fixes:
- Don't require apksigner in order to compare .apk files using apktool.
- Add a special-case to squshfs image extraction to not fail if we aren't
root/superuser. (Closes: #991059)
- Reduce the maximum line length to avoid O(n^2) Wagner-Fischer algorithm,
which meant that diff generation took an inordinate amount of time.
(Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#272)
- Include profiling information in --debug output if --profile is not set.
- Don't print an orphan newline when the Black source code formatter
self-test passes.
- Tests:
- Update test to check specific contents of squashfs listing, otherwise it
fails depending on the test systems uid-to-username mapping in passwd(5).
- Assign "seen" and "expected" values to local variables to improve
contextual information in/around failed tests.
- Misc changes:
- Print the size of generated HTML, text (etc.) reports.
- Profile calls to specialize and diffoscope.diff.linediff.
- Update various copyright years.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:python/diffoscope?expand=0&rev=29
- Don't include specific ".debug"-like lines in the output, as it invariably
a duplicate of the debug ID that exists in a better form in the readelf(1)
differences for this file.
- Also ignore include short "GCC" lines that differs on a single prefix byte
too. These are distracting, not very useful and are simply the strings(1)
command's idea of the build ID, which, again, is displayed nearby in the
file's diff.
- Update the invocation arguments and tests for the latest version of
odt2txt.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:python/diffoscope?expand=0&rev=28
- Don't traceback on an broken symlink in a directory.
(Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#269)
- Rewrite the calculation of a file's "fuzzy hash" to make the control
flow cleaner.
- Support .deb package members compressed with the Zstandard algorithm.
(LP: #1923845)
- Overhaul the Mach-O executable file comparator.
- Implement tests for the Mach-O comparator.
- Switch to new argument format for the LLVM compiler.
- Fix test_libmix_differences in testsuite for the ELF format.
- Improve macOS compatibility for the Mach-O comparator.
- Add llvm-readobj and llvm-objdump to the internal EXTERNAL_TOOLS data
structure.
