Ximin, before you start reading this. Please, think about if you have enough time and interest, because it seems that you are not reading me :(. If you don't have time for this, please, just don't answer. I'll understand.

And I said 2 of 3, that's 66.66% and because we migrated just 3 packages to salsa. We are applying the same pipeline for all our packages and reprotest is a single job inside the pipeline... I have no idea how are you testing it, but every single package that uses help2man or sphinx is not going to be reproducible according to reprotest and it'll fail randomly. > If you do more in-depth research on the problem I might be inclined to take > it more seriously, but so far it looks like that isn't the case here.

We were trying to use reprotest in our CI pipeline on salsa. Cheers, -- TiN
