Package: diffoscope
Version: 104
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

A new upstream release of file/libmagic has been accepted into
experimental a few moments ago, version 1:5.35-1. As your package is
one of those that somewhat suffered from surprising feature changes of
libmagic in the past, I'd like to give you an opportunity to test and
to prepare for any changes, for better or for worse. In case of the
latter, use the BTS as usual to report detections that could see an
improvement.

Test-building diffoscope resulted in a regression, see log extract
below. I reckon this was introduced by an upstream change of pcap file
detection, e.g.

-diffoscope-104/tests/data/test2.pcap: tcpdump capture file (little-endian) - version 2.4 (Ethernet, capture length 262144)
+diffoscope-104/tests/data/test2.pcap: pcap capture file, microsecond ts (little-endian) - version 2.4 (Ethernet, capture length 262144)

My plan is to upload to unstable in a week from now. Let me know, if you
need more time.

Sorry for the hazzle,

    Christoph, bringer of the bad news
