Bug#786755: [Reproducible-builds] Bug#786755: devscripts: please include a reproducible builds script

I respectfully disagree - I think it's even useful now, with our custom repository. Developers want to test their packages and patches now, against our current framework. They don't care that much that we haven't reached sid yet. And I believe having this in devscript will also contribute in making this happen faster :-) There should be a switch turning the custom repo off though, or maybe vice versa evebn: have it disabled by default and only enable it via a switch. cheers, Holger signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

user reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org usertag 786755 + infrastructure thanks Antonio Terceiro: Please include a script that will take a source package and build it twice in a row in a way that is as similar as possible to the way it is done by the Reproducible Builds initiative. I am cc'ing the Reproducible Builds mailing list; they seem to have at least 2 versions of such a script. It would be nice if the command used to do the actual build (dpkg-buildpackage/debuild/cowbuilder/sbuild etc) could be a parameter with a sensible default. For the record, here's the one that can currently be used on user systems: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/reproducible/misc.git/tree/prebuilder Setup is documented on the wiki: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds/ExperimentalToolchain#Usage_example My guts say that until we need a custom repository for core packages (e.g. dpkg), it's not worth being included in devscripts. -- Lunar.''`. lu...@debian.org: :Ⓐ : # apt-get install anarchism `. `'` `- signature.asc Description: Digital signature
