+The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of diffoscope
+version `167`. This version includes the following changes:
+
+```
+* Temporary directory handling:
+  - Ensure we cleanup our temporary directory by avoiding confusion between
+    the TemporaryDirectory instance and the underlying directory.
+    (Closes: #981123)
+  - Use a potentially-useful suffix to our temporary directory based on the
+    command-line passed to diffoscope.
+  - Fix some tempfile/weakref interaction in Python 3.7 (ie. Debian buster).
+    (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#239)
+  - If our temporary directory does not exist anymore (eg. it has been
+    cleaned up in tests, signal handling or reference counting),  make sure
+    we recreate it.
+
+* Bug fixes:
+  - Don't rely on magic.Magic(...) to have an identical API between file's
+    magic.py and PyPI's "python-magic" library.
+    (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#238)
+  - Don't rely on dumpimage returning an appropriate exit code; check that
+    the file actually exists after we call it.
+
+* Codebase changes:
+  - Set a default Config.extended_filesystem_attributes.
+  - Drop unused Config.acl and Config.xattr attributes.
+  - Tidy imports in diffoscope/comparators/fit.py.
+
+* Tests:
+  - Add u-boot-tools to test dependencies so that salsa.debian.org pipelines
+    actually test the new FIT comparator.
+  - Strip newlines when determining Black version to avoid "requires black
+    >= 20.8b1 (18.9b0\n detected)" in test output (NB. embedded newline).
+  - Gnumeric is back in testing so re-add to test dependencies.
+  - Use assert_diff (over get_data, etc.) in the FIT and APK comparators.
+  - Mark test_apk.py::test_android_manifest as being allowed to fail for now.
+  - Fix the FIT tests in buster and unstable.
+```
