Package: docbook-to-man User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: toolchain Version: 1:2.0.0-35 X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org
On i386 (but not armhf or amd64), docbook-to-man inserts random characters into the output. e.g. it will sometimes generate an "I" instead of a literal tab. I chased the bug around the code, and it looks like /usr/bin/instant has some UB in main.c: https://sources.debian.net/src/docbook-to-man/1:2.0.0-35/Instant/main.c/#L799 memcpy(&buf[1], &buf[2], strlen(buf)-1); .. for bufs like " n\\011". The resulting buf contains \111, which maps to capital I, eventually. Cool coincidence, eh. Patch (for this case!) is simply s/memcpy/memmove/, but I doubt this is the only case where this can happen.
