> Dear maintainer,
> 
> while working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
> that ldaptor could not be built reproducibly.
> 
> This is due to different content of the documentation created by Epydoc.
> The attached patch ensures stable sorted order for the list of input
> files fed into Epydoc, and it also moves a list out of the global scope that
> captures the home directory set during the build in a string. This would
> otherwise have been added to the documentation.
> Once applied, ldaptor can be built reproducibly in our current experimental
> framework.
> 
> Thanks for considering the patch.
> Best regards,
> Sascha
