What happened in the
reproducible
builds effort between December
27th and January 2nd:
Infrastructure
dak now silently accepts and discards
.buildinfo files (commit
1,
2), thanks to Niels Thykier and Ansgar Burchardt. This was later
confirmed as working by Mattia Rizzolo.

The
testing distribution (the upcoming
stretch) is now tested on
armhf. (h01ger)
Four new
armhf build nodes provided by Vagrant Cascandian were integrated in the infrastructer. This allowed for 9 new
armhf builder jobs. (h01ger)
The RPM-based build system,
koji, is now in
unstable and
testing. (Marek Marczykowski-G recki, Ximin Luo).

Steven Chamberlain
explained in length why reproducible cross-building across architectures mattered, and
posted results of his tests comparing a stage1 debootstrapped chroot of
linux-i386 once done from official Debian packages, the others cross-built from kfreebsd-amd64.
