Basically, most mingw binaries show irreproducibilities. Random example: $ diffoscope --text-color=always orig/liblerc-4.0.0-8.fc42/mingw64-liblerc-4.0.0-8.fc42.noarch.rpm rebuild/liblerc-4.0.0-8.fc42/rebuild/mingw64-liblerc-4.0.0-8.fc42.noarch.rpm ├── content │ ├── ./usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/bin/libLerc-4.dll │ │ ├── objdump │ │ │ @@ -26,15 +26,15 @@ │ │ │ MajorImageVersion 0 │ │ │ MinorImageVersion 0 │ │ │ MajorSubsystemVersion 5 │ │ │ MinorSubsystemVersion 2 │ │ │ Win32Version 00000000 │ │ │ SizeOfImage 00594000 │ │ │ SizeOfHeaders 00000600 │ │ │ -CheckSum 005b5e09 │ │ │ +CheckSum 005bac94 │ │ │ Subsystem 00000003 (Windows CUI) │ │ │ DllCharacteristics 00000160 │ │ │ HIGH_ENTROPY_VA │ │ │ DYNAMIC_BASE │ │ │ NX_COMPAT │ │ │ SizeOfStackReserve 0000000000200000 │ │ │ SizeOfStackCommit 0000000000001000 │ │ │ @@ -5759,15 +5759,15 @@ │ │ │ CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, DATA │ │ │ 11 .debug_aranges 000014b0 00000002dbe54000 00000002dbe54000 0008be00 2**0 │ │ │ CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING │ │ │ 12 .debug_info 002eaad4 00000002dbe56000 00000002dbe56000 0008d400 2**0 │ │ │ CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING │ │ │ 13 .debug_abbrev 00009733 00000002dc141000 00000002dc141000 00378000 2**0 │ │ │ CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING │ │ │ - 14 .debug_line 000914e2 00000002dc14b000 00000002dc14b000 00381800 2**0 │ │ │ + 14 .debug_line 000914d7 00000002dc14b000 00000002dc14b000 00381800 2**0 │ │ │ CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING │ │ │ 15 .debug_frame 0000b678 00000002dc1dd000 00000002dc1dd000 00412e00 2**0 │ │ │ CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING │ │ │ 16 .debug_str 00005ed6 00000002dc1e9000 00000002dc1e9000 0041e600 2**0 │ │ │ CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING │ │ │ 17 .debug_line_str 00003b6b 00000002dc1ef000 00000002dc1ef000 00424600 2**0 │ │ │ CONTENTS, READONLY, DEBUGGING │ │ │ @@ -7098,15 +7098,15 @@ │ │ │ [1319](sec 19)(fl 0x00)(ty 0)(scl 3) (nx 1) 0x0000000000061463 .debug_loclists │ │ │ AUX scnlen 0x3a1b nreloc 623 nlnno 0 │ │ │ [1321](sec 12)(fl 0x00)(ty 0)(scl 3) (nx 1) 0x0000000000000810 .debug_aranges │ │ │ AUX scnlen 0xc0 nreloc 11 nlnno 0 │ │ │ [1323](sec 20)(fl 0x00)(ty 0)(scl 3) (nx 1) 0x000000000000f656 .debug_rnglists │ │ │ AUX scnlen 0xb7e nreloc 155 nlnno 0 │ │ │ [1325](sec 15)(fl 0x00)(ty 0)(scl 3) (nx 1) 0x000000000002e8ac .debug_line │ │ │ -AUX scnlen 0x23fe nreloc 73 nlnno 0 │ │ │ +AUX scnlen 0x23f3 nreloc 72 nlnno 0 ...
