tarballs are currently not touched/supported at all by strip-nondeterminism. > Indeed, and given that we would want the behaviour to be consistent across > archive formats and I think this goes beyond what strip-nondetermism should > do, I am marking this as wontfix. I think it would be more consistent to also normalize UID/GID in zip files, as this is some non-determinism (that should be stripped). And strip-nondeterminism currently also normalizes permissions to 755/644, which is a bit related to UID/GID.
