The variations done on the first and second builds are documented here: https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/index_variations.html You could run a build manually with some of the easy ones changed, such as locale (the second build runs with a UTF-8 locale, the first in non-utf8 C). According to your log, it does appear to be time/date/timezone related: # Failed test 'datetime - timezone' # at t/1628_import_pdf_metadata.t line 46. # Structures begin differing at: # $got->[0] = '2019' # $expected->[0] = '2018' # Looks like you failed 1 test of 6. t/1628_import_pdf_metadata.t .................. 1..6 ok 1 # skip skipping the full datetime + timezone test until I understand it better not ok 2 - datetime - timezone ok 3 - author ok 4 - subject ok 5 - keywords ok 6 - title Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100) Failed 1/6 subtests (less 1 skipped subtest: 4 okay) ... Test Summary Report ------------------- t/1628_import_pdf_metadata.t (Wstat: 256 Tests: 6 Failed: 1) Failed test: 2 Non-zero exit status: 1 Files=232, Tests=1129, 407 wallclock secs ( 0.92 usr 0.96 sys + 247.45 cusr 46.72 csys = 296.05 CPU) Result: FAIL As an alternate approach, you could run with reprotest and disable the test suites, since the package seems to build otherwise, to produce something that diffoscope can at least compare. Then if you fix the issues leading to the differences, you might be lucky enough that it also fixes the issues in the test suite. :) Good luck! live well, vagrant
