[diffoscope] diffoscope 304 released 💠

[Chris Lamb]

Hi,

The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of
version 304 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 304 includes the following changes:

  [ Chris Lamb ]
  * Do not run jsondiff on files over 100KiB as the algorithm runs in O(n^2)
    time. (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#414)
  * Fix test after the upload of systemd-ukify 258~rc3 (vs. 258~rc2).
  * Move from a mono-utils dependency to versioned "mono-devel | mono-utils"
    dependency, taking care to maintain the [!riscv64] architecture
    restriction. (Closes: #1111742)
  * Use sed -ne over awk -F= to to avoid mangling dependency lines containing
    equals signs (=), for example version restrictions.
  * Use sed backreferences when generating debian/tests/control to avoid DRY
    violations.
  * Update copyright years.

  [ Martin Joerg ]
  * Avoid a crash in the HTML presenter when page limit is None.
