Hi ports --Now that py-magic has been imported, I'm bringing back sysutils/diffoscope. Diffoscope is a utility that provides in-depth comparison of files, archives, and directories.
--- pkg/DESCR: diffoscope will try 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. It can be scripted through error codes, and a report can be produced with the detected differences. The report can be text or HTML. When no type of report has been selected, diffoscope defaults to write a text report on the standard output. diffoscope was initially started by the "reproducible builds" Debian project and now being developed as part of the wider "Reproducible Builds" initiative. It is meant to be able to quickly understand why two builds of the same package produce different outputs. diffoscope was previously named debbindiff. ---I think one of the tests hangs (pcap) but I'm not sure if it's me doing something wrong.
The utility works fine on amd64. OK? ~Brian
