-#863470: "ftp.debian.org: security sync must not exclude .buildinfo" - while this bug isn't fixed, you need to make sure not to build jessie updates with stretch's dpkg… else the upload will be rejected.
+Here's what happened in the [Reproducible
+Builds](https://reproducible-builds.org) effort between Sunday May 21 and
+Saturday May 27 2017:
 
 
+Reproducible work in other projects
+-----------------------------------
+
+[debuerreotype](https://github.com/debuerreotype/debuerreotype/) was newly
+added to Debian unstable. It is a reproducible, snapshot-based Debian rootfs
+builder.
+
+
+Toolchain development
+---------------------
+
+[[!bug 863470]]: "ftp.debian.org: security sync must not exclude .buildinfo" -
+while this bug isn't fixed, you need to make sure not to build jessie updates
+with stretch's dpkg, or else the upload will be rejected.
+
+Ximin Luo [built GCC
+twice](https://people.debian.org/~infinity0/repro/gcc-6-repro/) and ran
+diffoscope on them. Unfortunately the results were 1.7 GB in size and it can't
+be displayed in a web browser. 99/171 of the .debs are reproducible, though.
+He's now working on diffoscope (see below) to make it generate output more
+intelligently for such large size diffs. Here is a [summary
+diff](https://people.debian.org/~infinity0/repro/gcc-6-repro/diff.html) where
+the recursion depth cut-off was set low, so the size is reasonable and one can
+still see the outlines of where to look next.
+
+
+Packages reviewed and fixed, and bugs filed
+-------------------------------------------
+
+* Adrian Bunk:
+  * [[!bug 863202]] filed against [[!pkg adonthell-data]].

+removed in this week, adding to our knowledge about [identified
+issues](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/index_issues.html).
+
+
+Weekly QA work
+--------------
+
+During our reproducibility testing, FTBFS bugs have been detected and reported by:

+
+
+diffoscope development
+----------------------
+
+Development continued in
+[git](https://anonscm.debian.org/git/reproducible/diffoscope.git/log/?h=experimental),
+with commits from:
+
+- Ximin Luo:
+  - Refactor container-related logic to make the code clearer.
+  - Various improvements to the progress bar, making it behave more accurately
+    and make it compatible with `--debug` logging output.
+  - Fix `--exclude control.tar.gz`.
+  - When enforcing max-container-depth, show which internal files differ,
+    without showing their details.
+  - Add `--max-container-depth` CLI option.
+
+
+strip-nondeterminism development
+--------------------------------
+
+Version 0.034-1 was uploaded to unstable by Chris Lamb. It included previous
+weeks'
+[contributions](https://anonscm.debian.org/git/reproducible/strip-nondeterminism.git/log/?h=debian/0.034-1)
+from:
+
+* Chris Lamb
+  * Only print log messages by default if the file was actually modified.
+    (Closes: [[!bug 863033]])
+* Bernhard M. Wiedemann
+  * zip: make sure we have permissions on extracted file
+  * Add function prototypes.
+
+
+Misc.
+-----
+
+This week's edition was written by Ximin Luo and Holger Levsen & reviewed by a
+bunch of Reproducible Builds folks on IRC & the mailing lists.
