Do we care? Most upstream distribution tarballs are likewise going to feature random UIDs and GIDs in the tarball because that's what you get from tar if you don't take any special precautions. All of our software therefore already copes with this. The tarball already isn't reproducible without tools like pristine-tar due to other issues with the format. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
