Julien | Just saw that as well, is there a specific reason we are not building xz from the "source code" links generated from github ? If I understand correctly part of the backdoor is not present in there | 16:38:11 |
vcunat | Because release tarballs need less dependencies to build. | 16:39:31 |

vcunat | * Because release tarballs need less dependencies to build from. | 16:39:55 |
tgerbet | And the source code tarball generated by GH automatically are not stable | 16:40:28 |
vcunat | We have tools for that. | 16:40:55 |
vcunat | Hashing the unpacked directory tree instead. | 16:41:07 |
vcunat | Dependency on autoreconfHook can be bothersome, especially for packages involved in stdenv bootstrapping. | 16:41:42 |
