<br>
This was actually the clue to fixing the issue — I don't think it wasn't<br>
being found, but there was an exception being thrown that wasn't being<br>
caught correctly.<br>
<br>
After fixing this on the master branch, comparing the .jar files now in<br>
without extracting them now correctly exposes the difference in BasePage.html.<br>
<br>
I'll perform a new release of diffoscope presently.<br>
<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
