Hi,
proftpd-dfsg is currently not reproducible on reproduce.debian.net:
https://reproduce.debian.net/excuses.html?source_name=proftpd-dfsg
The problem is that it uses Rules-Requires-Root: binary-targets and with
that fakeroot and that influences the build result. As the fakeroot
package is not recorded in the buildinfo file, we can't use it during
the rebuild and the generated binaries differ. The attached patch makes
it possible to build without fakeroot and makes the package reproducible
for me. Please consider applying the attached patch and uploading a new
version.
Thanks!
Jochen
