Hi,

The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of
version 252 of diffoscope.

diffoscope tries to get to the bottom of what makes files or
directories different. It will recursively unpack archives of many
kinds and transform various binary formats into more human-readable
form to compare them. It can compare two tarballs, ISO images, or PDF
just as easily.

Version 252 includes the following changes:

  * As UI/UX improvement, try and avoid printing an extended traceback if
    diffoscope runs out of memory. This may not always be possible to detect.
  * Mark diffoscope as stable in setup.py (for PyPI.org). Whatever diffoscope
    is, at least, not "alpha" anymore.

## Download

Version 252 is available from Debian unstable as well as PyPI, and
will shortly be available on other platforms surely. More details can
be found here:

? but source tarballs may be located here:

The corresponding Docker image may be run via (for example):

      registry.salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope a b
