Package: python3-sepolicy Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Control: forwarded -1 https://salsa.debian.org/selinux-team/selinux-python/-/merge_requests/3 User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: buildpath
Dear Maintainer, I'm an occasional volunteer contributor to the Reproducible Builds[1] project, and, based on the current contents[2] of the python3-sepolicy package in Debian trixie, particularly the presence of a direct_url.json file, I believe that it would fail a reprotest reproducibility build test on Salsa. The expected cause of difference in the built python3-sepolicy .deb files is a build-path from the reprotest comparison builds; this is written into the Python direct_url.json file. For flit-based Pyton packages we automatically remove[3] that file, and I believe that we can do that safely here too. I've provided a merge request[4] to suggest that change. Thanks, James [1] - https://reproducible-builds.org/ [2] - https://packages.debian.org/trixie/all/python3-sepolicy/filelist [3] - https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/tools/dh-python/-/commit/2ef6ff13748984258d5da000c17d9cdad707b9ae [4] - https://salsa.debian.org/selinux-team/selinux-python/-/merge_requests/3
