diffoscope 226 released 💠

[Chris Lamb]

Hi,

The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of
version 226 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 226 includes the following changes:

  [ Christopher Baines ]
  * Add an lzip comparator with tests.

  [ Chris Lamb ]
  * Add support for comparing the "text" content of HTML files using html2text.
    (Closes: #1022209, reproducible-builds/diffoscope#318)
  * Misc/test improvements:
    * Drop the ALLOWED_TEST_FILES test; it's mostly just annoying.
    * Drop other copyright notices from lzip.py and test_lzip.py.
    * Use assert_diff helper in test_lzip.py.
    * Pylint tests/test_source.py.

  [ Mattia Rizzolo ]
  * Add lzip to debian dependencies.

## Download

Version 226 is available from Debian unstable as well as PyPI, and
will shortly be available on other platforms surely. More details can
