* Also add the optional python modules to the autopkgtest dependencies.
* Temporarily drop Build-Depends and Test-Depends on apktool and oggvideotools, as they are not available in buster at the moment.
* comparators: + java: - Rename the tool procyon-decompiler to procyon. - Properly fall back from procyon to javap also when procyon exists but doesn\'t return any output.
* Declare in setup.py that diffoscope is good to go with Python 3.7.

* Fix tests under colord >= 1.4.3. Closes: #908900
* Add an \"Add a comparator\" section in CONTRIBUTING. MR: !9
* debian: Use the new debhelper-compat(=11) build dep and drop d/compat.

* update to new version 101:
* Fix testsuite under LLVM >= 7.0. (Closes: #908074)
* Substvar generation: - Ensure Debian substvar generation is deterministic regardless of installed packages.

* update to new version 100:
* Correct matching of .deb archive members. (Closes: #903565)

* Handle errors with encrypted archive files. (Closes: #904685)
* update to new version 99:
* Add lz4 comparator. Closes: #901548; !4
* Clear the progress bar after completion. Closes: #901758 Handle terminals that do not support erasing the line by filling the terminal with spaces. Ignore output devices that are not terminals.
* Do not delete the current terminal line for every progress bar update. The erasure was also causing the progress bar to flicker.
* Add a gitlab CI script. !8
* tempfiles: + Set the base directory only if the caller didn\'t specify one already. + Do not append \'_diffoscope\' to the temporary file names, as they are now all in their namespaced directory already. + Empty the list of known tempfiles after removing them. Closes: #902709

* Change the \"No file format specific differences found inside, yet data differs\" message to be clearer that diffoscope \"knows\" about this file format yet could not be helpful in this case.
* Don\'t append a rather useless \"(data)\" suffix from file(1).

* Misc: - Clarify that the Reproducible Builds project is not just about Debian. - Drop executable bit on doc/Makefile. - Use our bin/diffoscope wrapper in manpage generation to ensure we are using the local version of diffoscope.
