Source: bglibs Severity: serious Justification: TC resolution #994388 Tags: patch User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: usrmerge X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-b...@lists.alioth.debian.org
The path to perl is embedded differently in /usr/bin/cli-generate depending on if it was built on a usrmerge vs. non-usrmerge system. https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/bookworm/amd64/diffoscope-results/bglibs.html /usr/bin/cli-generate #!·/usr/bin/perl vs. #!·/bin/perl The attached patch fixes this by explicitly specifying the path as /usr/bin/perl instead of using 'which' to detect the path, which is compatible with both usrmerge and non-usrmerge systems. According to my local tests, with this patch applied bglibs should build reproducibly on tests.reproducible-builds.org! Thanks for maintaining bglibs! live well, vagrant
From c62fcbde299245ffcd027fd524f2fd2419d874c4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vagrant Cascadian <vagr...@reproducible-builds.org> Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2023 18:44:06 -0700 Subject: Makefile: Ensure perl path is set to '/usr/bin/perl'. Using 'which' to detect the path to perl may result in /bin/perl, which is only typically available on usrmerge systems. /usr/bin/perl is where perl has actually been installed for quite some time, and is unlikely to change. https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/issues/unstable/paths_vary_due_to_usrmerge_issue.html --- Makefile | 3 +-- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index 2600365..8a87feb 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -864,8 +864,7 @@ path/mktemp.lo path/mktemp.o: ltcompile path/mktemp.c systime.h include/bglibs/p perl-head.pl: ( set -e; PATH="/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:$$PATH"; export PATH; \ - perl=`which perl`; \ - echo "#! $$perl"; \ + echo "#! /usr/bin/perl"; \ echo "# WARNING: This file was auto-generated.
