Bug#977684: mahimahi: reproducible builds: Embeds paths to iptables and ip in binaries

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Source: mahimahi
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: usrmerge

The paths to "iptables" and "ip" may vary when built on a usrmerge and
non-usrmerge system, and get embedded in /usr/bin/mm-link and possibly
other binaries:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/bullseye/amd64/diffoscope-results/mahimahi.html

It's a little hard to notice, but I caught these differences in mm-link:

  /sbin/ipH
  vs.
  /usr/sbiH


The attached patch fixes this by passing IPTABLES and IP to configure in
debian/rules. With this patch applied, it should build reproducibly in
our test infrastructure.


Thanks for maintaining mahimahi!


live well,
