Package: strip-nondeterminism (1.14.0-1)

file non-deterministic information stripper — stand-alone tool

StripNondeterminism is a library for stripping non-deterministic information such as timestamps and filesystem ordering from various file and archive formats.

This can be used as a post-processing step to improve the reproducibility of a build product, when the build process itself cannot be made deterministic.

It is used as part of the Reproducible Builds project, although it should be considered a temporary workaround which should not be needed in the long term; upstream software should be reproducible even without using such a tool.

This package installs the stand-alone ‘strip-nondeterminism’ tool.
