Comment 1 Randy MacLeod 2023-08-17 14:52:32 UTC 
There is an extra -O3 in the debug section of the diff-html
Comment 2 Trevor Gamblin 2023-09-07 14:46:47 UTC 
Richard has added a patch that covers the issue: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=1d07be514ccacedb4d1ac48e0fdd3a36ae098698
Comment 5 Randy MacLeod 2023-09-28 14:51:20 UTC 
The upstream has switched to meson and maybe that will help with the reproducibility problem. 
Re-assigning to Ross who volunteered to help.
Ross, Richard says this is likely a release blocker.

The diffoscope behaviour is pretty bad (hours!) and should be improved. 
Joshua may look at that.

Hopefully RP fixed this once and for all in c4d1dc5e33734b94835e7f5e0e1746d4a6542b55.
