The binary path for "rm" is embedded in 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsnapper.so.6.0.1:

  
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/bookworm/amd64/diffoscope-results/snapper.html

  /bin/rm
  vs.
  /usr/bin/rm

As well as several other binary paths in an example Makefile.

The attached patch fixes this in debian/rules by pasing variables to
configure to use the non-usrmerge paths, which are the most compatible
across all systems.

With this patch applied snapper should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org when once it migrates to testing!

Thanks for maintaining snapper!

live well,

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] debian/rules: Pass variables to ensure consistent paths
 in binaries.

Use the most compatible paths for CPBIN, GREP, EGREP, FGREP, MKDIR_P,
RMBIN and SED, which differ depending on if built on a usrmerge
vs. non-usrmerge system.
