Hi,

GNU Make now has a --shuffle option that simulates non-deterministic ordering
of target prerequisites. See
https://trofi.github.io/posts/238-new-make-shuffle-mode.html and also previous
work in Debian by Santiago Vila:
https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/make-shuffle/

This package fails to build with make --shuffle=reverse.
This is likely to be caused by a missing dependency in
debian/rules or an upstream Makefile.

More information about this mass bug filing is available at
https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/FTBFS/Shuffle

Relevant part (hopefully):
> make[1]: Entering directory '/build/reproducible-path/python-ulmo-0.8.8+dfsg1'
> debian/rules:26: update target 'override_dh_installdocs' due to: target does not exist
> dh_installdocs --doc-main-package=python-ulmo-doc -ppython-ulmo-doc
> dh_installdocs: error: Cannot find (any matches for) "**/build/html" (tried in ., debian/tmp)
> 
> make[1]: *** [debian/rules:26: override_dh_installdocs] Error 25 shuffle=reverse

If you reassign this bug to another package, please mark it as 'affects'-ing
