And I assume that because diffoscope failed there's no link there
and that's why I couldn't find it?

Can I find that piece of information somewhere on that page?

It might be a good idea to change the code behind it to check
WIFSIGNALED(diffoscope_exit_code) and if that's the case consider
it to be a temporary test bed error, instead of a reproducibility
failure - which would result in just an error code.

Thanks!
