Package: diffoscope
Version: 84

I'm using diffoscope on a Mac and it doesn't have tools like readelf and 
objdump by default and even after installation (e.g. via brew) those would be 
called greadelf and gobjdump instead to not conflict with local tools under the 
same name. Diffoscope should either find them automatically or have some 
configuration to the names.

However it doesn't stop there: With objdump you can't just pick *any* version 
but you need one with support for the precisely the target architecture you 
want to look at; if it has multiple potential choices, it'll barf but more 
typically it does not have the correct architecture support, e.g. when 
crosscompiling. So it is important to again either automatically guess and 
check for the correct version using the readelf information or to provide 
configuration...

In case you are wondering now; I'm trying to compare embedded application 
binaries compiled with a arm-non-eabi toolchain.
