Package: libparse-yapp-perl
Control: forwarded -1 https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=122977

Hello,

parsers generated by libparse-yapp-perl are not reproducible bit-by-bit, most likely due to
non-deterministic order of Perl hash keys. While this issue does not affect the behavior of
the generated parsers, it causes reproducibility warnings in Debian reproducible builds for
packages shipping such parsers [1]. I think this issue should not be difficult to patch.

Best,
Andrius
