[DSE-Dev] reproducable builds

[cgzones]

I rioted in the debian/rules file and got the build reproducible for me:
https://github.com/cgzones/debian-package-refpolicy/commit/8de642c8d1ddd10c09a1d1521eeb4e0a1da6bfff

I think the only reproducible error was the missing --sort=name option
to the tar command.
I used the approach over here:
