Package: diffoscope Severity: wishlist Please add detection of order only variations in plain text files (TXT/HTML files) in similar way like the recent addition of order only difference in JSON output in: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/reproducible/diffoscope.git/commit/?id=8faf040767b892e1cf19d4ec2965a29301b9ae40
Thus allows easier/faster classification of issues, for example the below issues: random_order_in_md5sums clilibs_line_order varying_ordering_in_data_tar_gz_or_control_tar_gz random_order_in_tarball qt_translate_noop_nondeterminstic_ordering random_order_in_ibus_table_createdb_output db_ordering_noop_detect random_ordering_in_pom random_order_in_sisu_javax_inject_named sphinx_htmlhelp_readdir_sensitive nondeterminstic_ordering_in_gsettings_glib_enums_xml valac_permutes_get_type_calls share the same 'order only difference', it can be implemented by merging all the changed lines in file A (first build) vs same file B (second build), if there is the same amount of lines it's means that there is no other difference except ordering. _______________________________________________ Reproducible-builds mailing list Reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/reproducible-builds
