Package: debbindiff
Version: 16
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

I'd like to disable the Device section diff in the stat output.  This
feature is needed when I compare different image files I've been
verifing.

In a conversation in the #debian-reproducible IRC channel on OFTC, I
was told to disable device section by default (with out any option). 

I will post a patch soon.  Meanwhile, here is a github repo for this:
