It is the first build that failed in reproducible, and it also failed when I tried locally in a chroot before submitting this bug. Looking at my failed build, there is an interesting cause of this FTBFS: bunk@localhost:~/ngspice-29$ ls doc/*ngspice* doc/26_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_fft_windows.png doc/27_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_ng-win-out.png doc/28_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_ng-win-out-white.png doc/29_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Example_Circuit_C1.png doc/30_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_C4.png doc/31_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_C5.png doc/32_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_vr2-trrandom.png doc/33_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_gnuplot-stat-an.png doc/34_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_optim-speed.png doc/35_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_XSPICE-Toplevel.png doc/36_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Example_Circuit_1.png doc/37_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Example_Circuit_2.png doc/38_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Example_Circuit_C3.png doc/39_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Filter-IO.png doc/40_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Subc-filter.png doc/41_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_CIDER_Conc_profile1.png doc/42_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_CIDER_Conc_profile2.png doc/43_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_mesh-3a.png bunk@localhost:~/ngspice-29$ The binary package contains the build path in the file names, and the build fails when your regex that matches when *build/ngspice* is part of the build path fails. > Regards > Carsten cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"

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

Not sure if that's the case here. if the folder doc/ wouldn't exist make would also fail on this step, so that's not the root for the bug report Adrian has created. For sure something isn't working as expected but I don't see why is working with sbuild and pbuilder and also on the first run of the reproducible setup but not on the second. Since version 29 (or was it also in 28) the documentation comes with the files configure.ac and Makefile.am which are the base for configuring a project by the autotools. Instead of doing some manual lyx calls to create the documentation we should fix the current poor implementation of the autotools files. -- Regards Carsten Schoenert
