Subject: bug#67334: diffoscope: missing/undetected dependencies?
Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2023 08:21:14 -0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZVznCiecCJd66mbZ@theoden> (raw)
Hi, recently I tried to use diffoscope to compare to PDFs. I got these errors:
│┄ xxd not available in path. Falling back to Python hexlify.
│┄ 'pdftotext' not available in path. Falling back to binary comparison.
I found that if I installed packages `xxd' and `xpdf' into my environment, the errors go away and I can compare line-by-line as expected.
Here is my system information:
