diffoscope 240 released 💠

[Chris Lamb]

Hi,

The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of
version 240 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 240 includes the following changes:

  [ Holger Levsen ]
  * Update Lintian override info format in debian/source/lintian-overrides.
  * Add Lintian overrides for some "very long lines" in test cases.
  * Update Lintian overrides for tests being tagged source-is-missing or
    prebuilt.
  * Add Lintian override for very long lines for debian/tests/control.
  * Re-add two Lintian overrides about (well-known) source-is-missing
    instances.

  [ Mattia Rizzolo ]
  * Drop the use of include_package_data=True in setup.py.

## Download

Version 240 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:
