Reviews of unreproducible packages ---------------------------------- 81 package reviews have been added, 14 have been updated and 43 have been removed in this week, adding to our knowledge about [identified issues](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/index_issues.html). 3 issue types have been updated: - [sphinx\_htmlhelp\_readdir\_sensitive](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/reproducible-notes/commit/414d815) - [random\_order\_in\_dh\_haskell\_substvars](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/reproducible-notes/commit/9e27d3d) - [sphinx\_htmlhelp\_readdir\_sensitive](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/reproducible-notes/commit/414d815) 1 issue type has been removed: - [unsorted\_pdl\_output](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/reproducible-notes/commit/b6a55f6) 1 issue type has been updated: - [document some reseach on docbook-to-man](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/reproducible-notes/commit/aed8686) Weekly QA work -------------- During of reproducibility testing, some FTBFS bugs have been detected and reported by: - Chris Lamb (17) diffoscope development ---------------------- - [diffoscope 62](https://tracker.debian.org/news/811661) was uploaded to unstable by Mattia Rizzolo: * Add rudimentary support for OpenDocumentFormat files. (Michel Messerschmidt) * Detect JSON order-only differences and print them nicely. (Mattia Rizzolo) buildinfo.debian.net development -------------------------------- - Chris Lamb continued work on our [proof-of-concept ``.buildinfo`` file server](https://buildinfo.debian.net/): - [Show key ID over node name now](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/buildinfo.debian.net.git/commit/?id=f9f41b7) - [Show submission timestamp.](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/buildinfo.debian.net.git/commit/?id=72bcbda) - [Accept .udebs](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/buildinfo.debian.net.git/commit/?id=0559940) - [Actually show latest submissions on homepage.](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/buildinfo.debian.net.git/commit/?id=2ee9826) - [GPG signatures are now mandatory](https://salsa.debian.org/reproducible-builds/buildinfo.debian.net.git/commit/?id=23601f0) tests.reproducible-builds.org ----------------------- Reproducible Debian: - With thanks to [Profitbricks](https://www.Profitbricks.com) continued sponsorship, Holger setup two new amd64 build nodes (and the associated Jenkins jobs) with 15/16 cores and 48GB RAM each for a total of four such amd64 nodes to double the build capacity of our amd64 build network. Misc. ----- Also with thanks to Profitbricks sponsoring the "hardware" resources, Holger created a 13 core machine with 24GB RAM and 100GB SSD based storage so that Ximin can do further tests and development on GCC and other software on a fast machine. This week's edition was written by Chris Lamb, Ximin Luo, Vagrant Cascadian, Holger Levsen and reviewed by a bunch of Reproducible Builds folks on IRC.
