Source: tiger Version: 1:3.2.3-14.1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch upstream User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: environment locale X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Dear Maintainer, While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed that 'tiger' could not be built reproducibly. The attached patch fixes the locale used by ls to sort files, and uses printf instead of echo to get the same behavior when SHELL is sh or dash. Once applied, tiger can be built reproducibly in our current experimental framework. Regards, Alexis Bienvenüe. [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
