it took a few fixes, but the minimal 24.05 ISO is reproducible again: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixos-reproducible-builds-minimal-installation-iso-successfully-independently-rebuilt/34756/9 * i'm confused, isn't jfsutils both not reproducible and part of the minimal iso? | 22:19:18 |

charuto: It regressed ?? #276433 is open since december and was never closed. | 01:08:22 |
| Atemu | In that case I may have randomly worked | 01:13:45 |
| Atemu | We don't actually know whether the ISO is reproducible or not | 01:14:00 |
| Atemu | And we will never find out | 01:14:06 |
| Atemu | We can only take snapshots | 01:14:34 |
| Atemu | Something working in one snapshot is no guarantee that it works the next time | 01:15:00 |
 raboof | In this case 'the ISO is reproducible' meant 'we rebuilt it from source and it produced the same binary' | 06:09:50 |
| raboof | we have seen a nondeterminism in jfsutils in the past and haven't fixed it, so we suspect it is still there, but it 'often' does produce the same binary | 06:10:58 |

 emily | JFS is basically unmaintained and has been on the long road to probable removal from the kernel for years, is it even worth keeping? I guess if it helps shake out toolchain bugs | 10:27:57 |
| emily | Amazon Linux and probably other distros have already disabled it | 10:28:08 |
| Atemu | What's even pulling it in? | 10:29:01 |
