Description Ross Burton 2017-06-26 09:44:02 UTC 
RPM injects /usr/lib/.build-id/[hash] files into pacakges as part of Fedora's debuginfo approach.  As we don't use these, I think we should make this behaviour conditional and disable it.
Comment 1 Juro Bystricky 2017-06-29 15:53:42 UTC 
The .build-id is a unique value, so I believe it would break binary reproducibility. I would either remove it altogether or enable conditionally based on (hopefully coming in near future) variable BUILD_REPRODUCIBLE_BINARIES.
