No in the original files. Otherwise the bzip2 file would also be different ;-)
The problem was the timestamp of the temporal tar file... but now I
have a different problem. I can create reproducible gzip files from
the tar, but now I'm unable to create reproducible tar files.

In my local system everything is OK. Using "osc build" I get
reproducible results. If I manually create .tar.gz files from
different copies of the directory I get reproducible results. If I
uncompress the .tar.gz files created in the build service and create
new .tar.gz from them I get reproducible results... But the builds in
the (Packman) Build Service are not reproducible.

I'm going to look through the tar file format specs, but any help is welcome.
