Don't Nix builds all happen in a randomly generated temporary directory by default? Then you just copy to $out in installPhase. Perhaps stabilizing the build directory would help alleviate some of the immediate problems, if what Joachim is describing affects us too. On Mon, May 18, 2015 at 10:13 P

I'd like to add a +1 to getting this fixed. It bites us at work, where exact binary reproducibility of builds is strongly desirable. Regards, Malcolm On 14 May 2015, at 17:38, George Colpitts wrote: > Currently the priority of #4012 is normal, shouldn't it be at least high? > Also the mil

Currently the priority of #4012 is normal, shouldn't it be at least high? Also the milestone is 7.12.1, should it be 7.10.2? On Sun, May 10, 2015 at 3:39 PM, Mateusz Kowalczyk wrote: > Hi, > > I'd like to bring some attention to ticket #4012 about non-determinism. > As many of you may know, the

Hi, I'd like to bring some attention to ticket #4012 about non-determinism. As many of you may know, the nix package manager distributes binaries throughout its binary caches. The binaries are shared as long as the hash of some of their inputs matches: this means that we can end up with two of the
