The build path and binary paths are embedded in
/usr/share/doc/libsx-dev/examples/freq/Makefile:
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/diffoscope-results/libsx.html
ACLOCAL·=·${SHELL}·'/build/1st/libsx-2.08/m4/missing'·aclocal-1.16
vs.
ACLOCAL·=·${SHELL}·'/build/2/libsx-2.08/2nd/m4/missing'·aclocal-1.16
EGREP·=·/bin/grep·-E
vs.
EGREP·=·/usr/bin/grep·-E
The attached patch fixes this by removing the example Makefile, which
would have to be regenerated anyways to match the system to run it on.
If removing the example Makefile is not viable, it might be possible to
sanitize the build paths, and all relevent arguments to configure
(e.g. EGREP='/bin/grep -e') to use the specified paths.
According to my local tests, With this patch applied libsx should build
reproducibly on tests.reproducible-builds.org!
Thanks for maintaining libsx!
live well,
vagrant

Subject: [PATCH] debian/rules: Remove example Makefile for reproducible
builds.
The Makefile contains build paths and usrmerge paths, and would have
to be regenerated from Makefile.am/Makefile.in in order to match the
system on which it is being run.
