Re: [PATCH] nscd_stat.c: make the build reproducible

would it be so terrible to properly marshall this data ?

Ximin Luo and I discussed this and I wonder if it is possible to read out the libc.so.6 build ID if it is present. It should indirectly call all the layout dependencies and be reasonably easy to access because it is in an allocated section (and we might want to print it from an libc.so.6 invocation, too).

We still need the time-based approach if the build ID is not available, but I expect most distributions will have something like it.

The Debian bug is:
