Subject: rotter: reproducible-builds: Embedded build path in /usr/bin/rotter

Date: Sun, 25 Sep 2022 17:48:08 -0700

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Source: rotter
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: buildpath
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bugs@lists.alioth.debian.org

The build path is embedded in /usr/bin/rotter:

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

  /build/1st/rotter-0.9/src/rotter.c:478
  vs.
  /build/2/rotter-0.9/2nd/src/rotter.c:478

The attached patch to debian/rules fixes this by adding a
dh_auto_configure override which passes the default CFLAGS provided by
dpkg-buildflags.

Alternately, updating to a newer debhelper compat level might also solve
this issue as well as other issues.

With this patch applied rotter should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org!

Thanks for maintaining rotter!

live well,
  vagrant
