Thanks for the update!

Not a *huge* deal, but this version should have perl added to native
inputs, as some tests now use "zipdetails" from perl, and are skipped if
it is not present. Or does something else pull in perl?

In general, checking the diff between the old diffoscope version and the
new version would reveal things like this, e.g. in tests/ you might look
for things like:

  -@skip_unless_tools_exist("zipinfo")
  +@skip_unless_tools_exist("zipinfo", "zipdetails")

Also, strange as it may sound, reading debian/changelog might also hint
at changes like this (which would be included in the diff between
versions)!

For a build without perl, the test coverage is:

  638 passed, 72 skipped

With perl added to native-inputs:

  644 passed, 66 skipped

That seems like a nice improvement. :)

Thanks, I've pushed this to master as

Cool, I think it would be useful if we could get the test suite to log
more as well, since 66 is still quite a few tests.

Or at least, not a regression from diffoscope 261:

  https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/3903616/log/raw

  644 passed, 66 skipped

:)

You mean log why something was skipped? Yeah, that would be
nice... maybe cranking up the verbosity on the tests suites would help,
if it doesn't generate too much noise.


For the most part there are a few things not yet packaged for guix. I
sometimes use this to hunt for additional things in need of packaging:

  guix shell --pure diffoscope $(guix shell --pure diffoscope  -- diffoscope --list-missing | awk -F packages: '/Guix/{print $2}' | tr -d , | tr ' ' '\n' | sed -e '/^$/d') python-argcomplete python-androguard python-defusedxml python-jsondiff  -- diffoscope --list-missing

Which currently outputs:

  Available-in-Arch Linux-packages: mono
  Available-in-Debian-packages: aapt, apksigcopier, apksigner, apktool, coreboot-utils, dexdump, fontforge-extras, mono-utils, oggvideotools, perl, procyon-decompiler, xmlbeans
  Available-in-FreeBSD-packages: mono
  Available-in-GNU Guix-packages:
  External-Tools-Required: aapt2, apksigcopier, apksigner, apktool, cbfstool, dexdump, dumpxsb, lipo, oggDump, otool, pedump, procyon, showttf, zipdetails
  Missing-Python-Modules: guestfs, r2pipe


Notably, I just added the mapping to get zipdetails for guix:

  https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/-/commit/90dd18830d9330c8fb8f87dd2ca50972574b6926

In the past I have sometimes temporarily monkey-patched such updates
until it lands in a new upstream version.

I pushed a fix for this regression as
