+In these reports we try and outline the most important things that we have been up to over the past month, as well as the most important things in/around the community. As a quick recap, the motivation behind the reproducible builds effort is to ensure no malicious flaws can be deliberately introduced during compilation and distribution of the software that we run on our devices.

+[![]({{ "/images/reports/2023-01/github.png#right" | relative_url }})](https://github.blog/changelog/2023-01-30-git-archive-checksums-may-change/)
+
+In a curious turn of events, GitHub first announced this month that the checksums of various Git archives may be subject to change, specifically that because:
+
+> … the default compression for Git archives has recently changed. As result, archives downloaded from GitHub may have different checksums even though the contents are completely unchanged.
+
+This would have had quite wide-ranging implications for anyone wishing to validate and verify downloaded archives using cryptographic signatures. However, GitHub reversed this decision, updating their [original announcement](https://github.blog/changelog/2023-01-30-git-archive-checksums-may-change/) with a message that "We are reverting this change for now. More details to follow." It appears that this was informed in part by an [in-depth discussion in the GitHub Community issue tracker](https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/45830).

+Noak Jönsson has written an interesting paper entitled [*The State of Software Diversity in the Software Supply Chain of Ethereum Clients*](https://www.cesarsotovalero.net/files/publications/The_State_Of_Software_Diversity_In_The_Software_Supply_Chain.pdf). As the paper outlines:
+
+> In this report, the software supply chains of the most popular Ethereum clients are cataloged and analyzed. The dependency graphs of Ethereum clients developed in Go, Rust, and Java, are studied. These client are Geth, Prysm, OpenEthereum, Lighthouse, Besu, and Teku. To do so, their dependency graphs are transformed into a unified format. Quantitative metrics are used to depict the software supply chain of the blockchain. The results show a clear difference in the size of the software supply chain required for the execution layer and consensus layer of Ethereum.

+## Distribution work
+
+### F-Droid & Android
+
+[![]({{ "/images/reports/2023-01/fdroid.png#right" | relative_url }})](https://f-droid.org/)
+
+There was a very large number of changes in the [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/) and wider Android ecosystem this month:
+
+On January 15th, a blog post entitled [*Towards a reproducible F-Droid*](https://f-droid.org/en/2023/01/15/towards-a-reproducible-fdroid.html) was published on the [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/), outlining the reasons why "F-Droid signs published APKs with its own keys" and how reproducible builds can help prevent issues with that. In particular:
+
+> In response to […] criticisms, we started [encouraging new apps to enable reproducible builds](https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/issues/2816). It turns out that reproducible builds are not so difficult to achieve for many apps. [In the past few months we’ve gotten many more reproducible apps in F-Droid than before](https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/issues/2844). Currently we can’t highlight which apps are reproducible in the client, so maybe you haven’t noticed that there are many new apps signed with upstream developers’ keys.
+
+(There was a [discussion about this post](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34457143) on [Hacker News](https://news.ycombinator.com/).)
+
+In addition:
+
+* F-Droid added 13 apps published with reproducible builds this month. [[…](https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/issues/2844)]
+
+* FC Stegerman outlined a bug where [`baseline.profm` files are nondeterministic](https://gist.github.com/obfusk/61046e09cee352ae6dd109911534b12e). As he notes, this issue [should already be fixed](https://android.googlesource.com/platform/tools/base/+/2f2c6b30b55e18e2672edf5ee8e8e583be759d3e) but it is not yet part of the official [Android Gradle plugin release](https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin).
+
+* GitLab user [*Parwor*](https://gitlab.com/Parwor) discovered that the number of CPU cores can affect the reproducibility of `.dex` files. [[…](https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/1519#note_1226216164)]
+
+* FC Stegerman also announced the `0.2.0` and `0.2.1` releases of [*reproducible-apk-tools*](https://github.com/obfusk/reproducible-apk-tools), a suite of tools to help make `.apk` files reproducible. Several new subcommands and scripts were added, and a number of bugs were fixed as well [[…](https://lists.reproducible-builds.org/pipermail/rb-general/2023-january/002815.html)][[…](https://lists.reproducible-builds.org/pipermail/rb-general/2023-january/002816.html)]. He also updated the [F-Droid website](https://f-droid.org/) to improve the reproducibility-related documentation. [[…](https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroid-website/-/merge_requests/895/diffs)][[…](https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroid-website/-/merge_requests/901/diffs)]
 
-* [FIXME: number of CPUs/cores can affect .dex file reproducibility](https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/1519#note_1226216164)
+* A number of bugs related to reproducibility were discovered in Android itself. Firstly, the non-deterministic order of `.zip` entries in `.apk` files [[…]](https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/265653160)] and then newline differences between building on Windows versus Linux can make builds not reproducible as well. [[…](https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/266109851)]. (Note that these links may require a Google account to view.)
 
-* [FIXME](https://gist.github.com/obfusk/61046e09cee352ae6dd109911534b12e)
+* And just before the end of the month, FC Stegerman started a thread on [our mailing list](https://lists.reproducible-builds.org/listinfo/rb-general) on the topic of [hiding data/code in APK embedded signatures](https://lists.reproducible-builds.org/pipermail/rb-general/2023-January/002825.html) which has been made possible by the [Android APK Signature Scheme v2/v3](https://source.android.com/docs/security/features/apksigning). As part of this, he made an Android app that reads the APK Signing block of its own APK and extracts a payload in order to alter its behaviour called [*sigblock-code-poc*](https://github.com/obfusk/sigblock-code-poc).

+Elsewhere in Debian, [*strip-nondeterminism*](https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/strip-nondeterminism) is our tool to remove specific non-deterministic results from a completed build. This month, version `1.13.1-1` was [uploaded to Debian unstable](https://tracker.debian.org/news/1409573/accepted-strip-nondeterminism-1131-1-source-into-unstable/) by Holger Levsen, including a fix by FC Stegerman (*obfusk*) to update a regular expression for the latest version of `file(1)` [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/strip-nondeterminism/commit/f1017c6)]. ([#1028892](https://bugs.debian.org/1028892))
 
-* [FIXME](https://github.com/obfusk/sigblock-code-poc)
+Lastly, 65 reviews of Debian packages were added, 21 were updated and 35 were removed this month adding to [our knowledge about identified issues](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/index_issues.html).
+
+### Other distributions
+
+In other distributions:
+
+[![]({{ "/images/reports/2023-01/opensuse.png#right" | relative_url }})](https://www.opensuse.org/)
+
+* Bernhard M. Wiedemann published another [monthly report for reproducibility within openSUSE](https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/RQ3TMTIOU7HUX5TIP7IE7KT7ZWERWPXB/), as well as [a belated report for December 2022](https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/2DKRGC4EIBVUVP6RWHBCEL5SJKCTWRFM/).
+
+* It was announced that [Fedora Rawhide](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/releases/rawhide/) now 'clamps'  file modification types to [`SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`]({{ "/docs/source-date-epoch/" | relative_url }}). […](https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/2BDU7CFZGEXUWBHJIZDB2QAOIR2R5TFN/)]
+
+* Finally, an existing tool called [*rpmreproduce*](https://github.com/fepitre/rpmreproduce) was (re-)discovered this month, which claims that "given a buildinfo file from a RPM package, [it can] generate instructions for attempting to reproduce the binary packages built from the associated source and build information."
+
+---
+
+## [diffoscope](https://diffoscope.org)
+
+[![]({{ "/images/reports/2023-01/diffoscope.png#right" | relative_url }})](https://diffoscope.org)
+
+[*diffoscope*](https://diffoscope.org) is our in-depth and content-aware diff utility. Not only can it locate and diagnose reproducibility issues, it can provide human-readable diffs from many kinds of binary formats. This month, Chris Lamb made the following changes to [diffoscope](https://diffoscope.org), including preparing and uploading versions `231`, `232`, `233` and `234` to Debian:
+
+* No need for `from __future__ import print_function` import anymore. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/7a1dc409)]
+* Comment and tidy the `extras_require.json` handling. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/7129af15)]
+* Split inline Python code to generate test `Recommends` into a separate Python script. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/c341b63a)]
+* Update `debian/tests/control` after merging support for [PyPDF](https://pypdf2.readthedocs.io/) support. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/2e317927)]
+* Correctly catch segfaulting `cd-iccdump` binary. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/2d95ae41)]
+* Drop some old debugging code. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/fca2293a)]
+* Allow ICC tests to (temporarily) fail. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/dff253b5)]
+
+In addition, FC Stegerman (*obfusk*) made a number of changes, including:
+
+* Updating the `test_text_proper_indentation` test to support the latest version(s) of [`file(1)`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_(command)). [[…](https://bugs.debian.org/329)]
+* Use a `extras_require.json` file to store some build/release metadata, instead of accessing the internet. [[…](https://bugs.debian.org/325)]]
+* Updating an APK-related [`file(1)`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_(command)) regular expression. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/72f8f33d)]
+* On the [*diffoscope.org* website](https://diffoscope.org/), de-duplicate contributors by e-mail. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope-website/commit/1ebaa67)]
+
+Lastly, Sam James added support for [PyPDF](https://pypi.org/project/pypdf/) version 3 [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/6aed2e53)] and Vagrant Cascadian updated a handful of tool references for [GNU Guix](https://guix.gnu.org/). [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/a0b80552)][[…](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/diffoscope/commit/a10a169c)]

+## Testing framework
+
+[![]({{ "/images/reports/2023-01/testframework.png#right" | relative_url }})](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/)
+
+The Reproducible Builds project operates a comprehensive testing framework at [tests.reproducible-builds.org](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org) in order to check packages and other artifacts for reproducibility. In October, the following changes were made by Holger Levsen:
+
+* Node changes:
 
-* [openSUSE monthly](https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/RQ3TMTIOU7HUX5TIP7IE7KT7ZWERWPXB/) and the late one [from December](https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/2DKRGC4EIBVUVP6RWHBCEL5SJKCTWRFM/)
+    * Add three new nodes hosted at the [Oregon State University Open Source Lab](https://osuosl.org/) including integrating them into the DNS, maintenance and monitoring systems. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/48a18e51)][[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/26497180)][[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/e151cc7c)][[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/93115d67)][[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/840dc8da)]
 
-* [FIXME](https://onengineering.substack.com/p/there-is-no-secure-software-supply)
+* Debian-related changes:
+
+    * Only keep [diffoscope](https://diffoscope.org)'s HTML output (ie. no `.json` or `.txt)) for LTS suites and older in order to save diskspace on the Jenkins host. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/098742fb)]
+    * Re-create `pbuilder` base less frequently for the `stretch`, `bookworm` and `experimental` suites. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/d2d7923c)]
+
+* OpenWrt-related changes:
+
+    * Add gcc-multilib to OPENWRT_HOST_PACKAGES and install it on the nodes that need it. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/7f88cba8)]
+    * Detect more problems in the health check when failing to build OpenWrt. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/02ce1d17)]
+
+* Misc changes:
+
+    * Update the `chroot-run` script to correctly manage `/dev` and `/dev/pts`. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/0e49a9eb)][[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/a68ae0fd)][[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/f18ba089)]
+    * Update the Jenkins 'shell monitor' script to collect disk stats less frequently [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/2ea61357)] and to include various directory stats [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/00400ad4)][[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/e5b31286)].
+    * Update the 'real' year in the configuration in order to be able to detect whether a node is running in the future or not. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/3827ba7c)]
+    * Bump copyright years in the default page footer. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/ff82ec5f)]
+
+In addition, Christian Marangi submitted a patch to build OpenWrt packages with the `V=s` flag to enable debugging. [[…](https://salsa.debian.org/qa/jenkins.debian.net/commit/e8db59c3)]
