Hi, thanks for looking into reproducible builds. I have a few suggestions: - since it's a new feature, it cannot go into older releases. - zeroed is not a self-explanatory term. I suggest to find a term that does describe the result, not the internal operation. - I don't think you have to introduce a new argument at all. Instead you can provide a new method that creates a carefully crafted zipinfo object that results into zeroed arguments. That's how I implemented reproducible tar.bz2 files. - For full reproducible builds you may have to write files to zipfiles in a well-defined order. ---------- components: -IO nosy: +christian.heimes type: -> enhancement versions: -Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43547> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
