Falling back to binary comparison' clued me into the difference: binutils is already installed in the testbed for the debian tests but not the Ubuntu ones (for the successful run of the pytest test, both binutils and binutils-multiarch are installed as part of installing autopkgtest-satdep, but in Debian only binutils-multiarch is). If I run the tests with adt-run --shell, wait for the failing test and then log into the box and install binutils, the tests then pass. What I can't say is whether this indicates a bug in diffoscope or just that these tests should be skipped if nm is not there... Cheers, mwh
