As a quick recap about what problem our project intends to solve, whilst anyone may inspect the source code of free software for malicious flaws, almost all software is distributed to end users as pre-compiled binaries. The motivation behind the reproducible builds effort is to ensure no flaws have been introduced during this compilation process by promising identical results are always generated from a given source, thus allowing multiple third-parties to come to a consensus on whether a build was compromised or not.</span>

This is is important for reproducible builds, as it ensures the recording of the metadata required to demonstrate the shipped software matches the build output precisely where applicable. In addition, where the top-level only dependency limitation that was present in the 2021 version has been removed in favour of complete coverage with no minimum depth. That is, SBOMs are expected to reflect all linked libraries, vendored dependencies and other build-time inclusions.</span>

"Can we go from zero to the modern day without having to just assume the existence of these already-built-for-us artifacts?" The classic recipe for yogurt requires some yogurt to start the process, which is like how we normally build a C compiler today—we start with an existing C compiler binary. You might think about making sourdough bread with your grandmother's starter brought over from the old country; "we're basically making C compilers with Dennis Ritchie's starter carried over from Bell Labs".</span></span>
