I think there are a number of use cases where BR2_REPRODUCIBLE would be interesting (E.G. we have discussed turning it on by default), but you do no want to pay the extra build time for building these host utilities. So I'm open to an option to force building all host dependencies, but it should be keyed from a separate configuration option and not BR2_REPRODUCIBLE. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
