Hi,

The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of
version 317 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 317 includes the following changes:

  [ Chris Lamb ]
  * Limit python3-guestfs Build-Dependency to !i386. (Closes: #1132974)
  * Try to fix PYPI_ID_TOKEN debugging.

  [ Holger Levsen ]
  * Add ppc64el to the list of architectures for python3-guestfs.

## Download

Version 317 is available from Debian as well as PyPI, and will
shortly be available on other platforms shortly. More details can be
found here:

   https://diffoscope.org/

… but source tarballs may be located here:

  https://diffoscope.org/archive/

The corresponding Docker image may be run via (for example):

  $ docker run --rm -t -w $(pwd) -v $(pwd):$(pwd):ro \
      registry.salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope a b
