Description
|
Creating an empty Berkeley DB file (or ones with the same contents) results
in a different file.
.
This comes from:
https://sources.debian.org/src/db5.3/latest/src/os/os_uid.c/#L20 but
it's unclear where to "set" this only on the creation case - we definitely
want the uid to change if one adds stuff later.
.
Compounding this, the debugging tools *additionally* return random data for
the uid/hash fields (!), so presumably srand is being called when you do a
"db_dump -d a /path/to/my.db" which is obviously broken.

Description
|
PNG can capture build time with the tIME chunk or custom keywords.
These timestamps are currently removed by strip-nondeterminism, so are not visible to diffoscope anymore. Yet fixing the root cause would be nice.
