Because of this I've downgraded the severity to important. this bug is not about the package not being reproducible. > Without some debugging why the second build of ngspice in the > reproducible build environment is failing it's unlikely to find the > reason for the failing build.

It is the first build that failed in reproducible, and it also failed when I tried locally in a chroot before submitting this bug. Looking at my failed build, there is an interesting cause of this FTBFS: bunk@localhost:~/ngspice-29$ ls doc/*ngspice* doc/26_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_fft_windows.png doc/27_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_ng-win-out.png doc/28_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_ng-win-out-white.png doc/29_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Example_Circuit_C1.png doc/30_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_C4.png doc/31_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_C5.png doc/32_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_vr2-trrandom.png doc/33_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_gnuplot-stat-an.png doc/34_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_optim-speed.png doc/35_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_XSPICE-Toplevel.png doc/36_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Example_Circuit_1.png doc/37_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Example_Circuit_2.png doc/38_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Example_Circuit_C3.png doc/39_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Filter-IO.png doc/40_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_Subc-filter.png doc/41_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_CIDER_Conc_profile1.png doc/42_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_CIDER_Conc_profile2.png doc/43_home_bunk_ngspice-29_doc_Images_mesh-3a.png bunk@localhost:~/ngspice-29$ The binary package contains the build path in the file names, and the build fails when your regex that matches when *build/ngspice* is part of the build path fails. > Regards > Carsten cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?"
