Paul, I haven't tested your recipe yet. I'm currently running on my local machine this poky-contrib repo from yocto with my patches for tar paramas to this opkg-build script, which Sergey suggested.
If you wish to test it as well than it is located here git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky-contrib.git branch abelloni/master-next To run it you are typing: . ./oe-init-build-env build MACHINE="qemux86-64" oe-selftest -r reproducible but be adviced that first you need to comment SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS variable from ./meta-poky/conf/distro/poky.conf otherwise, it will fail due to this error: 2023-07-25 17:30:19,637 - oe-selftest - ERROR - Please unset SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS in order to run oe-selftest Right now, I'm running it as well...

Either the recipe wasn't followed, or it's buggy. It's similar to the recipe I've been using to generate tzdb releases since 2022a.
