Package: diffoscope
Version: 88

Even "--fuzzy-threshold 0" to disable any "fuzzy-matching" (whatever
that is in the context of diffoscope) didn't make a difference.

Diffing the output of "dpkg-deb --info" though shows quite some
differences (only showing the relevant hunks here):

[?]itude/aptitude-robot ? diff <(dpkg-deb --info ../aptitude-robot_1.5.2-1_all.deb) <(dpkg-deb --info ../aptitude-robot_1.5.3-1_all.deb)

Looking at https://bugs.debian.org/797525 it seems as if this is a
regression since that wishlist bug report requests "a way to ignore all
differences in control.tar" ? which actually seems to be the case
(except that the bug report didn't request this behaviour to be
unconditionally the default :-).
