+The Yocto Project has been quietly working on improving reproducibility of its output. As previously reported, it's 'core-image-minimal' target packages were entirely binary reproducible regardless of the host distro running the build system, or the directory used to perform the build. Starting with the first milestone release (M1) of 3.3 in the current development cycle, the entire "world" packages target for everything in OpenEmbedded-Core (11,271 generated packages) is now reproducible with the exception of 65 packages. This new target will be added to automated testing to ensure regressions can quickly be spotted and rectified going forward.

 In recent months there has been preparatory work to enable the [`reproducible=+fixfilepath` build flag](https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/reproducible-builds/Week-of-Mon-20200921/012586.html) by default. Enabling this `fixfilepath` feature flag will fix reproducibility issues in an estimated 500-700 packages. After [previous discussion](https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2020/10/msg00222.html) a discussion on the [debian-devel](https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/) mailing list, Vagrant Cascadian [filed a bug](https://bugs.debian.org/974087) to explicitly propose a patch for the `dpkg` developers.
