raboof | sometimes 'strings' produces some hint? | 15:55:56 |
p14 | Filed https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/360152 -- apologies I didn't see the link was to an issue template | 15:59:25 |
raboof | thanks! nothing jumps out at me at first glance either | 16:02:47 |
raboof | back to the original topic, though: I'm surprised specifying a -frandom-seed does seem to cause content-adressed rebuilds, but at the same time leaving it unspecified does not cause reproducibility issues. worth an experiment, though, of course. | 16:43:20 |

atemu12 | It depends on how you define the random seed i.g. If you used $out to deduce it, that'd obviously cause CA rebuilds | 16:51:52 |
raboof | what is it set to when you leave it unspecified? | 16:52:17 |
atemu12 | It's random IIRC | 16:54:02 |
raboof | then wouldn't that just-as-obviously cause reproducibility issues? | 16:54:23 |
