It should be possible to reproduce, byte for byte, every build of every package in Debian.

Status

Reproducible builds in Debian are still at the experimental stage. While we are making very good progress, it is a stretch to say that Debian is reproducible or even partially reproducible until the needed changes are integrated in the main distribution.

Statistics from the continuous integration platform

Next

  • Identify more common problems.
  • Get toolchain changes integrated once Jessie has been released.
  • Start a campaign to get developers to fix their packages.
  • Get .buildinfo files in the archive.

  • Require matching binary packages from the developer and a buildd before accepting the package in the archive. This could initially be opt-in.
