Current diffoscope autopkgtest depends on mono-utils, a binary package
that is no longer built from src:mono ≥ 6.14.1+ds-3. It has been merged
into mono-devel binary package.

Changing the test dependency from:
mono-utils
to:
mono-devel (>= 6.14.1+ds-3) | mono-utils (<< 6.14.1+ds-3)
is one possible way to fix that.

Priority is set as "important" because the autopkgtest failure is
preventing mono migration to testing. On the other hand there is no
reason currently to rush mono migration to testing, so here important
does not imply urgent in any way.

 .
   [ Chris Lamb ]
   * Do not run jsondiff on files over 100KiB as the algorithm runs in O(n^2)
     time. (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#414)
   * Fix test after the upload of systemd-ukify 258~rc3 (vs. 258~rc2).
   * Move from a mono-utils dependency to versioned "mono-devel | mono-utils"
     dependency, taking care to maintain the [!riscv64] architecture
     restriction. (Closes: #1111742)
   * Use sed -ne over awk -F= to to avoid mangling dependency lines containing
     equals signs (=), for example version restrictions.
   * Use sed backreferences when generating debian/tests/control to avoid DRY
     violations.
   * Update copyright years.
