Amendment -- it seems that Hungarian implementation fails on an empty matrix:
def listequals(a, b):
if len(a) == len(b) == 0:
return True
if len(a) != len(b):
return False
matrix = [[int(item_a != item_b) for item_b in b] for item_a in a]
path = Munkres().compute(matrix)
return sum(matrix[r][c] for (r, c) in path) == 0
