Ah ok, perfect then. > (I'd be in favor of naming the first accepted buildinfo > file of the archive just "00000000" so that it's predictable… I'm not sure how we'd use a sequential number in a distributed manner starting with 0s though? :9 > > I've some pending changes I'll be committing to master or a separate > > branch, that I'd like to be tested on the reproducible setup (ideally > > against the already generated and pre-existing reproducible binaries), > > if that's possible, I'll ask about that when those land, I just need > > to finish up fewm more unit tests. > > That's possible, though not (yet nor in near future) against pre-existing > binaries.
