hour, minute | at least the minute will probably vary between two builds anyway... | on amd64, i386 and arm64 the "future builds" additionally run 6h and 23min ahead |
filesystem | tmpfs | temporarily not varied using disorderfs (manpage) |
everything else... | is likely the same. So far, this is just about the potential of reproducible builds of Debian - there will be more variations in the wild. |
