[tor-talk] Deterministic builds?

[Jacob Appelbaum]

Hi,

A few Tor hackers are meeting today to discuss build engineering issues
and we'd like to start a thread on deterministic builds.

We believe that Windows and Mac OS X both produce build results that are
extremely difficult to verify. On Gnu/Linux sometimes the build results
are difficult to verify.

If anyone has thoughts on the matter, we'd love to hear how Tor as a
project should tackle verifiable builds of the various software we ship.

All the best,
Jacob
