diffoscope 291 released

21 Mar 2025 — Chris Lamb


The diffoscope maintainers are pleased to announce the release of diffoscope version 291. This version includes the following changes:

[ Chris Lamb ]
* Make two required adjustments for the new version of the src:file package:
  - file(1) version 5.46 now emits "XHTML document" for .xhtml files, such as
    those found nested within our .epub tests. Therefore, match this string
    when detecting XML files. This was causing an FTBFS due to inconsistent
    indentation in diffoscope's output.
  - Require the new, upcoming, version of file(1) for a quine-related
    testcase after adjusting the expected output. Previous versions of
    file(1) had a duplicated "last modified, last modified" string for some
    Zip archives that has now been removed.
* Add a missing subprocess import.
* Bump Standards-Version to 4.7.2.
