No, it's just that I didn't check these in ;).

The reason for that is that those diffs add up to 2.6G of data - they'd quickly make this git repo unusable. You can find them for now at https://nix-rb.bzzt.net/nixos-iso-gnome-r13y/

Those diffs (for example https://nix-rb.bzzt.net/nixos-iso-gnome-r13y/diff/ef5674a9182ebc05cb0bcdf02835a7fa877cc6c7c7883f5892809839e1a7db60-7b27a03cbe820735217685005e4683b60e7d471d8d484d19d63be0b92329afa7.html) are basically too big to be of any use anyway, so we should find a better way to create/truncate/...? them.

ghc isn't reproducible at all so perhaps ignore the ones with ghc in the path as they just add noise, i think we discussed about making a separate category for them so possibly fixable and non fixable ones could be separated, i don't remember where that was discussed

Interestingly some haskell packages appear to be reproducible, but indeed a ton of them aren't - refs NixOS/nixpkgs#151347

Yes, that would be good. Unfortunately they don't have ghc in the path :) . We can do that once we show attribute paths instead of derivation paths where possible, though (https://codeberg.org/raboof/nix-reproducible-builds-report/issues/1)

i don't remember where that was discussed

I think it was on Matrix, but we should track such things in issues. created https://codeberg.org/raboof/nix-reproducible-builds-report/issues/3
