as much I like your work in Debian I disagree on the used severity for
this report.
ngspice isn't failing on any buildd, *all* platforms Debian is currently
supporting have build successfully the ngspice packages. So I really
don't see a FTBFS!

I agree that ngspice isn't building reproducible for some reason. Policy
is saying that a package SHOULD be buildable reproducible but not it
MUST, so a report against a package due not buildable reproducible can't
be RC. Because of this I've downgraded the severity to important.

Without some debugging why the second build of ngspice in the
reproducible build environment is failing it's unlikely to find the
reason for the failing build. I don't have any reproducible build
environment running, I wont find out something useful.
Instead I will try to make the ngspice manual source be better supported
by the autotool environment. This will need some talking to upstream
first.

Regards
Carsten
