I mean the following:
ifeq (,$(filter nostrip,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))
override_dh_strip:
dh_strip
find . -name '*.a' \( \! -name '*_g.a' \) \
-exec strip --strip-debug \
--remove-section=.comment \
--remove-section=.note {} \;
endif
so that the debugging symbol are striped only if "nostrip" is not present.
You can see

Thanks for the extra info! I am new to the reproducible stuff as well.
I will look into it later. The nondeterminism is introduced by a
recent upload since this only affect unstable but not testing.
