--- Begin Message ---Source: diffoscope Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, 1. Better handle .dex files currently enjarify tool is used in order to transform .dex file to .jar, this tool can fail (as probably any decompiler) for example: Command `enjarify -o /tmp/tmpdp3fttiq_diffoscope/classes.jar /tmp/tmpw04hjmue_diffoscope/classes.dex` exited with -9. Output: <none> http://37.218.242.117/com.nbossard.packlist_16.apk.diffoscope.html#classes.dex No file format specific differences found inside, yet data differs: http://37.218.242.117/com.ancantus.HYPNOTOAD_4.apk.diffoscope.html#classes.dex in such cases the fallback is binary comparison, it will be better to: * use other decompilers as fallback if enjarify fail, such as: jadx - https://github.com/skylot/jadx SOOT - https://sable.github.io/soot/ Dare - http://siis.cse.psu.edu/dare/index.html Dex2Jar - https://github.com/pxb1988/dex2jar DAD from androguard (which has Debian package https://packages.debian.org/sid/androguard ) more information: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1249973/decompiling-dex-into-java-sourcecode#36159034 * if all available decompilers fail, use apktool in order to transform .dex file to smali/baksmali 2. Support parsing android resources not in APK file Support for some Android files (such as: AndroidManifest.xml & resources.arsc) was added in: https://anonscm.debian.org/git/reproducible/diffoscope.git/commit/?id=3e748664a91b7ced412547a204e1473161425d4f but it works only if comparing APK files, not directories / when the content archived in other format (non ZIP)

--- Begin Message ---Hi, > diffoscope: Support parsing Android resources not in APK file Closing as per: How would you feel about closing this issue given that we have two newer bugs that address this? Since three years has passed there have been lots of changes to APK and classes.dex and doing the archeology about what diffoscope used to do relative to this bug is not the most effective use of time, so it may make sense just to move to these newer, fresher bugs. -- https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/-/issues/21#note_164772 Best wishes, -- ,''`. : :' : Chris Lamb `. `'` la...@debian.org / chris-lamb.co.uk `-
