For instance, “guix build --no-substitutes” followed by “guix build --check” allows you to locally build and rebuild for checking if the build is reproducible – bitwise speaking. Then, “guix challenge” allows to check your local builds against the build-farm. Note that two build-farms are available [1,2] for various architectures. The Guix project runs a Data Service to collect various data. This service serves a JSON API (not-really documented but roaming on IRC #guix helps ;-)). One year ago (already, damned!), a tiny and drafty script to somehow get the reproducibility coverage was around [3]. I have not worked on it since then and I do not know if it still works. Perhaps, it might be an entry-point for working on reproducibility data from Guix. Feel free to ask more details. 1: <http://ci.guix.gnu.org/> 2: <http://bordeaux.guix.gnu.org/> 3: <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2020-10/msg00181.html> Hope that helps, simon PS: I close the issue since it is not one, IIUC. Instead, let redirect to the mailing list guix-devel which seems a better place for discussing such request. :-)
