The build path is embedded in /usr/bin/nwall:

  
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/diffoscope-results/nwall.html

  /build/1st/nwall-1.32+debian/src/nwall.c:65
  vs.
  /build/2/nwall-1.32+debian/2nd/src/nwall.c:65

The attached patch fixes this by adding -ffile-prefix-map to CFLAGS in
debian/rules, which avoids embedding the absolute build path.

Alternately, switching to use a newer debhelper compat level and the dh
build system would likely also fix this, as it includes -ffile-prefix-map
by default.


With this patch applied, nwall should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org!
