[PKG-Openstack-devel] Bug#892020: python-diskimage-builder: please make the build reproducible

Source: python-diskimage-builder
Version: 2.10.1-2

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed
that python-diskimage-builder could not be built reproducibly as
it iterates over XML elements in a non-deterministic order when
generating the documentation.

Patch attached.
