Package: python3-selinux Severity: wishlist Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: buildpath Control: forwarded -1 https://salsa.debian.org/selinux-team/libselinux/-/merge_requests/10
Dear Maintainer, I'm an occasional volunteer contributor to the Reproducible Builds[1] project, and noticed recently that the python3-selinux package failed[2] an automated reprotest reproducibility build test on Salsa. The cause of the differences in the built python3-selinux .deb files is that a build-path from the reprotest comparison builds was included in a Python direct_url.json file. For flit-based Pyton packages we automatically remove[3] that file, and I believe that we can do that safely here too. I've provided a merge request[4] to suggest that change. Thanks, James [1] - https://reproducible-builds.org/ [2] - https://salsa.debian.org/vorlon/libselinux/-/jobs/5317763 [3] - https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/dh-python/-/commit/2ef6ff13748984258d5da000c17d9cdad707b9ae [4] - https://salsa.debian.org/selinux-team/libselinux/-/merge_requests/10
