Package: pristine-tar
Version: 1.45
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainers,
pristine-xz can't reproduce this tarball:
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/software/network/iw/iw-4.14.tar.xz
Decompressing and recompressing it with `xz` produces a file of the
exact size but with a different hash:
-rw-r--r-- 1 pl pl 114096 Jan 4 2018 iw-4.14.tar.xz
sha1sum: 335898be067d0083c5aaadde7db8ba2371050fcd iw-4.14.tar.xz
After compressing/decompressing with `xz` (or `xz -6`):
-rw-r--r-- 1 pl pl 114096 Jan 4 2018 iw-4.14.tar.xz
sha1sum: 6c739a26aaa5d94ea68a55f348c7f648e158c6b5 iw-4.14.tar.xz
Bug #869191 suggests that the kernel.org people use `pixz -9 -p6 -t` to
generate their xz-balls, and indeed it works even in this case:
compressing iw-4.14.tar with `pixz -9 -p6 -t` produces a file that
exactly matches upstream's. #869191 suggests that `xz -T6` is able to
reproduce the output of `pixz -9 -p6 -t`, this has been reported to work
in a few cases and the workaround implemented in pristine-xz.
Unfortunately this is not the case with iw-4.14.tar.xz: `xz -T6`
produces a different file from `pixz -9 -p6 -t`, they even differ in
size. I tried a few combinations of options and compressions levels with
no luck.
The solution proposed in #869191 is not general and this somehow limits
the usability of pristine-xz.
