[Reproducible-builds] Bug#807997: Bug#807997: diffoscope: CbfsFile checks make diffoscope extra slow

[Holger Levsen]

Hi Mike,

out of curiosity: did you have cbfstool installed? (Minor side point: if you 
have, I think the severity is inflated, as cbfstool ain't in Debian. And 
probably even if you haven't. Anyway. Severities are not my point here. :)

Just last night I learned that for properly comparing certain objects for 
https://reproducible.debian.net/coreboot and 
https://reproducible.debian.net/openwrt/ I need cbfstool installed and so now 
I'm torn between installing it from sources (in an automatic fashion, inside 
jenkins, inside some schroots) or building a package, uploading it to sid and 
then just install the package. 

So I guess I'm basically wondering how many users of cbfstool there are…


cheers,
	Holger
