 Here's what happened in the [Reproducible Builds](https://reproducible-builds.org) effort between Sunday July 15 and Saturday July 21 2018:
 
+* The default GCC version in Debian unstable was changed from GCC 7 to GCC 8. Unfortunately as we have not updated our build path patches for this latter version, this is resulting in a large number of packages becoming unreproducible in our testing framework. Holger Levsen has [temporarily disabled rescheduling of already tested packages](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/53fc8962) accordingly, note however that newly uploaded versions will still be tested and most likely become unreproducible if using GCC 8.

 * The schedule for the [DebConf18](https://debconf18.debconf.org/) annual Debian Developers conference [was published](https://debconf18.debconf.org/schedule/), including talks entitled:

 * Bernhard M. Wiedemann [completed rebuilding all official openSUSE-Leap-15.0 packages](https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2018-07/msg00119.html). No bit-for-bit identical rebuilds are possible yet (as file modification times are kept). However, several new bugs were found/fixed, and no backdoors were found.
