pigz, gzip and busybox gzip datahash differs
When using pigz, gzip or busybox gzip the datahash
in the .PKGINFO
differs. The reason is that they aren't (and can't be) byte-by-byte compatible. The same issue probably effects man pages compressed by default_doc
.
For reproducible builds to be possible with abuild the compression tool needs to be fixed.
When choosing pigz or (non busybox) gzip the bootstrap.sh would need to be changed accordingly.
When busybox gzip is chosen gzip
should be replaced with busybox gzip
to ensure consistency even when (non busybox) gzip is installed.
(I think (non busybox) gzip would be weird for a busybox based distro)
