One patch sets the build dir to a static location based on the package

The other patch ignores .buildinfo files in the .changes when displaying

cool! I think it would be good if you could file a wishlist bug against
sbuild
(please add support for reproducible building of packages with sbuild) and
attach the patches there, so they do get lost.
Ok, I'll submit bugs about it so that they do *not* get lost. :)
the current setup on jenkins.d.n just uses pbuilder twice. Maybe we should
use
sbuild once and pbuilder once? Could you help us with patches for that too? I
at least have no clue about sbuild whatsoever ;-) We'd need to use our custom
repo anyway, so using an sbuild rebuild plus your two patches is rather
trivial...
The patch that configures the build dir would have to be rewritten for
that to work; sbuild seems to hard-code /build/ in a number of places ,
rather than the proposed /usr/src/debian/PACKAGE-VERSION; I'm not sure
what directory pbuilder is configured to use.
Also, pbuilder and sbuild would need to ensure the same exact package
set from build dependencies; there are various different dependency
resolvers which might result in differences that could cause
unreproducibility...
Could also add a third (and/or fourth) build with sbuild, to catch
issues where a package is rebuildable with pbuilder or sbuilder, but
doesn't produce consistant results when built once with pbuilder and
once with sbuild...
git clone ssh://git.debian.org/git/qa/jenkins.debian.net.git and then check
bin/reproducible_build.sh line 193 and 207 to see how pbuilder is used.
Using sbuild once instead should be trivial, no? ;-)
With the above two issues (and perhaps other undiscovered issues) fixed,
it should be as simple as replacing:
pbuild --build ... --distribution sid ${SRCPACKAGE}_*.dsc
with:
sbuild --chroot sid ${SRCPACKAGE}_*.dsc
With appropriately configured sbuild/schroot chroots.
live well,
