Some archive formats don't provide this functionality OOTB, for those we should consider other techniques to ensure the archives are deterministic across builds. https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/archives/ 75142 1 juro.bystricky 2017-07-19 17:02:38 +0000 will be part of the "reproducible binaries" patch set. 76372 2 juro.bystricky 2017-08-30 23:40:12 +0000 There have been some incremental progress. Generally, archive commands (tar, gzip) are scattered all over. Several patches were accepted that fix some of the issues, but there are a few more left. Some patches are still pending/being reviewed in ML. So moving to 2.5 M1 for completion, as more patches are to follow before this can be closed as RESOLVED. 80587 3 juro.bystricky 2018-05-15 11:18:44 +0000 I am closing this as this has been either implement or superseded by more specific problems.
