makes sense.

yes, in its logging functionality.

i'm currently using in debian/rules:

  export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=hardening=+all reproducible=+fixfilepath
  CFLAGS += -ffile-prefix-map=$(CURDIR)=/

are you suggesting that removing this CFLAGS export ought be
sufficient (thus relying entirely on
reproducible=+fixfilepath)? i believe i needed that CFLAGS
setting to ... make my python extension work? let me test it out
and see. thanks!
