Source: nullmailer Version: 1.13-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch upstream User: [email protected] Usertags: fileordering X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer, While working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed that 'nullmailer' could not be built reproducibly. The attached patch fixes the order in which files are included in the libnullmailer.a archive. Once applied, nullmailer can be built reproducibly in our current experimental framework. Regards, Alexis Bienvenüe. [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
