[Reproducible-builds] Bug#808267: diffoscope: Redundant information in ELF comparisons

[Mike Hommey]

Source: diffoscope
Version: 43
Severity: normal

When comparing ELF files, the following commands are used:
- readelf --all
- readelf --debug-dump
- objdump --disassemble --full-contents

objdump --disassemble --full-contents is actually redundant in itself. For
example, it will dump both an hexdump and a disassembly of the .text section.
It's also redundant with the output of readelf --debug-dump because it does an
hexdump of the .debug_* sections that readelf --debug-dump does a dwarf dump
of.
