Description

.a files are ar archives. Since binutils 2.25-6 they should be deterministic by default, but there are some remaining buggy corner cases - see bug #843210 for example if the package uses binutils-multiarch. (#843210 has been fixed in sid now, hopefully this issue becomes moot now.) . #978494 filed with patch for binutils-arm-none-eabi. #996184 filed with patch for bintuils-or1k-elf. . Other tools that create ar archives directly should in theory be covered by strip-nondeterminism, but it is still good to patch them.
