http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1102408 Bug ID: 1102408 Summary: trackerbug: packages do not build reproducibly from race conditions Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: All OS: openSUSE Factory Status: CONFIRMED Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Development Assignee: bwiedemann@suse.com Reporter: bwiedemann@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Depends on: 1021335, 1021353 Blocks: 1081754 Found By: Development Blocker: --- See also https://reproducible-builds.org/ and https://github.com/bmwiedemann/theunreproduciblepackage/tree/master/race When packages build with make -j$N (N>1), it sometimes results in binaries that differ between builds and thus trigger rebuilds of depending packages and are published to mirrors and users when actually nothing really changed. Build results can also be incorrect due to races. Often it is possible to fix races by adding proper dependencies between build targets (e.g. https://bugzilla.sudo.ws/show_bug.cgi?id=842 ) or fixing involved racy tools -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
