Reproducible Builds
A list of reproducible build meetings.
Agenda Meeting XX-01-2018
- UTF-8 failures with Python.
- There are a lot of reproducible build issues due to the lack of LANG=$lang-UTF-8. Do we need to explicitly set the LANG in the PKGBUILD
- See for example https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/archlinux/community/python-cssselect2/build1.log
- Package disorderfs
- Not high important right now, I've added it on my todolist. This could be used later in combination with the reproducible build script
- Pacman release
- How do we convince the Pacman team to create a new release, are there any known blockers they waiting on?
- Reproducible build script progress
- Discuss what the script exactly should do, create an RFC? To describe it's functionality.
- FIXME: add issues I encountered.
- Arch Linux Archive: don't remove packages mentioned in BUILDINFO file
- There should be a script which checks if packages can be removed from the Archive, since currently it removes packages older then 6 Months?
- Sangy was working on this if I recall correctly, what is the status?
- Killed builds
- Someone should investigate this, how do we reproduce this locally?
- SSL verification issues
- How do we circumvent SSL issues from reproducing a package locally which was build earlier, when the SSL certificate was valid
- Create a public to-do list
- We should get more people in to work on reproducible builds, how can we guide them and where do we keep track of the progress made and issues which require attention.
