The checksum of the file itself is simply a way of estab
I agree with you that it is not deterministic. What is really important is that
the
checksums and the tarball come from a source you trust and are in agreement.
It is a simple security measure and I am not sure there is value in making it
deterministic. I have a feeling that if you want to do that
I'm on OS X 10.9.2, Macbook Pro, tar --version returns
bsdtar 2.8.3 - libarchive 2.8.3
For me, your last line resulted in:
tar: Option --mtime=1970-01-01 01:00 is not supported

Also compression programs sometimes improve (without changing the

Hello Thierry !
What about checking that there is nothing wrong without a hashsum ?
1) Download the author's .tar.bz2 file
2) Use the sage-src script to generate the .tar.bz2 file yourself
3a) If the hashed match you are done
3b) If they do not match, extract them both and compare their content
