severity: important

Hi,

when building diffoscope in the future, the tests fail like this:

=================================== FAILURES ===================================
_________________________________ test_listing _________________________________

differences = [<Difference file list -- file list []>, <Difference dir/link -- 
dir/link []>, <Difference 
dir/text -- dir/text []>]

    @pytest.mark.skipif(tool_missing('cpio'), reason='missing cpio')
    def test_listing(differences):
        expected_diff = open(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 
'../data/cpio_listing_expected_diff')).read()

<deki> hm, i guess the reason is that it's build in 2017. in this case it 
prints "13 Jun 24  2015" instead of 
"13 Jun 24 15:11"
<h01ger> | deki: hehe & wow. nice find.
<h01ger> | so we're finding real build failures in the future now. neato.
<deki> :)
<h01ger> | Lunar: ^^ i think thats a nice story for the weekly report too


I've not filed this as serious (though I think it is) to not block testing
migration and because I'm certain there will be quite some uploads in the next
months anway. But we definitly shouldn't release with this in stableā€¦ ;-)


cheers,
        Holger
