Hi!
https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/reproducible-notes/commit/
b718ab29
adds:
"randomness_in_perl6_precompiled_libraries:
description:
Pretty sure Debian shouldn't be shipping these, just like .pyc files."
Why should Debian not ship precompiled Perl 6 libraries? Isn't
the whole point of binary distributions like Debian to save the users from
having to wait for compilation to finish?
Note: while there have been issues preventing reproducible builds of
precompiled files since MoarVM got hash order randomization a year ago, these
issues have been fixed last weekend and the upcoming 2019.05 release of rakudo
will build both itself and Perl 6 modules reproducibly.
Please CC me on replies. I'm not subscribed to the list.
