+Reproducible Arch Linux
+-----------------------
+
+Since November 23 2017 [Arch Linux](https://www.archlinux.org) is again [constantly tested for reproducibility](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/archlinux/),
+however this time a patched pacman is used which can create reproducible packages. After 4 days of testing, 18% of all packages in the <em>core, extra, multilib and community</em> Arch repos has been tested, with these - very preliminary - results:
+
+* core: 77.1% reproducible, all 197 packages tested.
+* extra: 75.2% reproducible, 514 packages (of 2250 total) tested.
+* multilib: 82.6% reproducible, all 259 packages tested.
+* community: 76.5% reproducible, 487 packages (of 7739 total) tested.
+
+So all in all, <em>it looks like</em>77.2% of the tested Arch Linux packages are now reproducible! With an unreleased pacman version and without some variations we apply when testing Debian… still this is a very good start! Kudos to all involved.
