Hi Changqing,

Thanks for the upgrade.

It looks like we have some reproducibility issue after the upgrade:

AssertionError: The following deb packages are different and not in exclusion list:
/srv/pokybuild/yocto-worker/reproducible/build/build-st/reproducibleB-extended/tmp/deploy/deb/./x86-64-v3/ruby-doc_4.0.1-r0_amd64.deb
The following ipk packages are different and not in exclusion list:
/srv/pokybuild/yocto-worker/reproducible/build/build-st/reproducibleB-extended/tmp/deploy/ipk/./x86-64-v3/ruby-doc_4.0.1-r0_x86-64-v3.ipk
The following rpm packages are different and not in exclusion list:
/srv/pokybuild/yocto-worker/reproducible/build/build-st/reproducibleB-extended/tmp/deploy/rpm/./x86_64_v3/ruby-doc-4.0.1-r0.x86_64_v3.rpm

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/valkyrie/#/builders/37/builds/3457

The diffoscope output can be found here:

https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/repro-fail/oe-reproducible-20260226-ok6427ba/packages/diff-html/

Based on that, it seems the file output is not stable, as it sometimes
add "last·modified: xxx" to the file type.

Can you have a look at the possibilities to make the build reproducible
again?

Thanks,
Mathieu
