Knowing the right flags to pass for specific .pcap debugging might vary depending on what kind of network trace differences the user is interested in (e.g. in some cases, the network admin doesn't care about wall-clock time, they just care about delay gaps, so it'd be nice to have the initial wallclock in one place -- at the top of the dump -- and then just offsets following; or the network admin might not care about the payload, and just be interested in the IP or TCP or UDP flags), but i think that kind of nuance might not something that diffoscope can really account for, given its generic mandate. Anyway, if somoene in the future tests and decides that tshark is "better" for diffoscope's purposes than tcpdump, they now have a specific place to patch. thanks, Lamby! --dkg ___ Reproducible-builds mailing list Reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/reproducible-builds
