[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#797521: ibus-table: please make the output of ibus-table-createdb deterministic

[lamby@debian.org (Chris Lamb)]

Source: ibus-table
Version: 1.9.1-3
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [0], we have noticed
that ibus-table-createdb creates output with non-determinstic output
due to Python dict ordering.

The attached patch removes this randomness from the build system. Once
applied, packages using ibus-table can be built reproducibly in our
reproducible toolchain.
