-reproducible builds mentioned on https://player.fm/series/lunduke-hour/brendan-eich-interview-lunduke-show-special-jan-9th-2018
+Here's what happened in the [Reproducible Builds](https://reproducible-builds.org) effort between Sunday December 31 and Saturday January 13 2018:
-https://dustri.org/b/tails-34-reproductible-build.html
+Media coverage
+--------------
-https://hackernoon.com/im-harvesting-credit-card-numbers-and-passwords-from-your-site-here-s-how-9a8cb347c5b5 (possibly)
+* Reproducible builds were mentioned on an episode of a [Bryan Lunduke](http://lunduke.com/) interview with [Brendan Eich](https://brendaneich.com/), the creator of the Javascript programming language. ([link](https://player.fm/series/lunduke-hour/brendan-eich-interview-lunduke-show-special-jan-9th-2018))
+
+* Julien (jvoisin) Voisin wrote a [short blog post detailing their success](https://dustri.org/b/tails-34-reproductible-build.html) in reproducing [the recent Tails ISO release](https://tails.boum.org/news/version_3.4/index.en.html).
+
+Development and fixes in key packages
+-------------------------------------
+
+Chris Lamb implemented two reproducibility checks in the [[!pkg lintian]] Debian package quality-assurance tool:
+
+* Warn about packages that ship [Hypothesis](https://hypothesis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) example files. ([[!bug 886101]], [report](https://lintian.debian.org/tags/package-contains-python-hypothesis-example.html))
+* Warn about packages that override `dh_fixperms` without calling `dh_fixperms` as this makes the build vary depending on the current `umask(2)`. ([[!bug 885910]], [report](https://lintian.debian.org/tags/override_dh_fixperms-does-not-call-dh_fixperms.html))
