NixOS is not reproducible

Okay, sorry for the clickbait. NixOS is not reproducible according to the Reproducible Builds definition. I keep reading people making this claim repeatedly on orange-site, even LWN.net made a similar claim when writing about Nix and Guix earlier this week.1 Along with their recently launched wiki. So, what is the Reproducible Builds definition?2 When is a build reproducible? A build is reproducible if given the same source code, build environment and build instructions, any party can recreate bit-by-bit identical copies of all specified artifacts.

Arch Linux in May 2023 # Staff # We would like to welcome Anton Hvornum (torxed) and Christian Heusel (gromit) among the Arch Linux Package Maintainers. On top we would like to welcome Leonidas Spyropoulos (artafinde) to their new additional duties as Arch Linux Developer Git packaging # We are thrilled to announce the successful migration of our packaging ecosystem to Git, with package sources now accessible on GitLab. As part of this transition, we have developed a powerful new tool called pkgctl, available through devtools, offering a user-centric design and streamlined user experience for interacting with all aspects of Arch Linux packaging for users and packagers alike.

It's been 24 hours and I see no Apple version of this.

What's going on?

Dependencies, dependencies, dependencies. Each one can bring other dependencies and this makes understanding the software supply chain be the same level of difficulty as understanding the universe. We now have a telescope for this: GUAC, a project that has been in development for nearly a year and now reaches its v0.1 release. Find more on Google's security blog and come and join us in solving large swaths of supply chain problems/questions: https://security.googleblog.com/2023/05/announcing-launch-of-guac-v01.html

There are more stuff here, but the sigstore paper also has a great number of relevant citations as @sangy has been working on this for a very long time :)

Hello Fediverse!

This account will post announcements from the Reproducible Builds project (https://reproducible-builds.org) as found on the birdsite, but will also boost Mastodon content related to the topic.

Happy to meet you all!

Reproducible Builds — a set of software development practices that create an independently-verifiable path from source to binary code
