firebird does not build reproducibly
------------------------------------
Key: CORE-5548
URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-5548
Project: Firebird Core
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.0.1
Environment: OS=Linux (openSUSE Tumbleweed)
Reporter: Bernhard M. Wiedemann
When working on reproducible builds for openSUSE,
I found that the firebird package produced different results on every build.
The differences come from two sources:
1.
g++ orders functions in libEngine12.so and fbintl
depending on random order of files in the build system's filesystem.
2.
Additionally, help.fdb and other sample .fdb files contain some bytes that
differ between builds.
See https://reproducible-builds.org/ for why this matters.
