Hi Daniel, for those who are not on #debian-reproducible... :) On Donnerstag, 25. September 2014, Daniel Kahn Gillmor wrote: Out of curiosity, why do we not need to run tests when rebuilding? The r-b process *is* changing the way things are built and occasionally tweaking files after they're built. Why wouldn't we want to run the tests in this case? i've reenabled the tests since a few days and it has at least revealed one interesting case, lintian, where the tests failed due to strip-determinism, which is in the process of being fixed. So yay for running tests! :) cheers, Holger signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Reproducible-builds mailing list Reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/reproducible-builds

Why wouldn't we want to run the tests in this case? hmm.. I'm pondering to re-enable the tests. They should eat 10% of the build time only anyway... cheers, Holger signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Reproducible-builds mailing list Reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/reproducible-builds
