Hi!

The reproducible build state is currently only provided for «testing»,
because «sid» contains additional checks that are deemed would annoy
maintainers.

I've been aware of this in the past, but was still caught off guard
when checking my DDPO page and seeing that inetutils was still marked
as non-reproducible, even though the tests for sid said it was. And
thought there was some stale data going on.


I think it would be ideal if the reproducible states was shown
explicitly for both testing and sid, even though for now the sid
column would just print a sigil for N/A data (‘-’? with an alt text
mentioning the suite), this would make the information immediately
obvious. Also I think that in the future the reproducible people
might want to expose the state for sid too, at which point the N/A
marker can just be switched to provide the actual state.

Thanks,
Guillem

the problem with the unreproducibility issues in unstable currently is
that they are mostly unactionable as the way forward for build path
issues is not yet clear. thus such warnings can and will be seen as annoying.

basically currently we are only targetting testing/buster with our
efforts.

I'm not sure N/A will be less confusing as we do have data for
unstable.. but maybe thats a way forward.
