I was referring to a hypothetical diff that you might generate locally; updating the result on tests.reproducible-builds.org would require a new upload. :) > i see in the isoinfo output only differences of user id, group id, > and timestamps of /boot and /boot/floppy.img.

When I apply my patch, the user ID, group ID and timestamp differences do disappear for me too, but that is not the only difference I see. I mean, hence why I said that my patch "does not make the ISOs entirely reproducible; there is another part or parts of the image that elude me right now". :) I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that it is a bug in xorriso just yet. It might be reproducible for you locally, but it is likely I am varying more things between my two builds. And even more on tests.reproducible-builds.org. The next step might be to upload with this patch so we can both work with the same output on tests.reproducible-builds.org. > --set_all_file_dates "=$SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH" Ah, neat. :) Yes, of course, feel free to use this over touch(1).
