+The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of diffoscope
+version `166`. This version includes the following changes:
+
+```
+[ Chris Lamb ]
+* New features and bugfixes:
+  - Explicitly remove our top-level temporary directory.
+    (Closes: #981123, reproducible-builds/diffoscope#234)
+  - Increase fuzzy matching threshold to 130 ensure that we show more
+    differences. (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#232)
+  - Save our sys.argv in our top-level temporary directory in case it
+    helps debug current/errant temporary directories.
+  - Prefer to use "magic.Magic" over the "magic.open" compatibility
+    interface. (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#236)
+  - Reduce fuzzy threshold to 110 to prevent some test failures.
+    (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#233)
+
+* Output improvements:
+  - Show fuzzyness amount in percentage terms, not out of the
+    rather-arbitrary "400".
+  - Improve the logging of fuzzy matching.
+  - Print the free space in our temporary directory when we create it, not
+    from within diffoscope.main.
+
+* Codebase improvements:
+  - Tidy the diffoscopecomparators.utils.fuzzy module.
+  - Update my copyright years.
+  - Clarify the grammar of a comment.
+  - Clarify in a comment that __del__ is not always called, so temporary
+    directories are not neccessary removed the *moment* they go out of scope.
+
+[ Conrad Ratschan ]
+* Fix U-Boot Flattened Image Tree ("FIT") image detection for larger image
+  files. (MR: reproducible-builds/diffoscope!75)
+```
