Fedora 41 Approved To Make Package Builds More Reproducible


In addition to approving -O3 optimized Python builds, the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee (FESC)) this week unanimously approved a Fedora 41 change proposal for making RPM package builds more reproducible.

This change is capable of making most Fedora RPM package builds reproducible in the name of security and auditability. It's worth noting that this Change does not intend to impose any specific reproducibility requirements on Fedora packages. add-determinism takes steps to ensure it does not interfere with other buildroot post processors like mangle-shebangs, python-hardlink, python-bytecompile.
