Or are you saying that it leaves your tree dirty? Because that has not happened to me and I believe others did not have a problem with it either, otherwise this would happen a LOT of times.'built twice' means 'build same source on different hosts at different times'. I want to get reproducible build results for binary packages.
Oh, so if you're wondering about reproducibility, then it's a different thing, I understand that. And libvirt is not a good one with regards to reproducible builds. So we should be able to fix that by sorting the output. I'll see once more how to do that in genprotocol.pl, but I don't promise anything. Feel free to also submit even a partial solution as a patch to the list.

But I'm still more curious about how come that causes you something that's not happening for me.I'm sure it returns reproducible results on localhost. But even if it did not noone would notice because if the file happens to differ it will just get rebuilt. Olaf
