    Arch Linux is heavily invested into it:

    - https://reproducible.archlinux.org/ - Attempts to reproduce the distributed binary packages from source using reproducible builds tooling. This already works for a big chunk of packages.

    - https://github.com/archlinux/archlinux-repro - This is a wrapper for Arch Linux build tooling that creates a build environment in a container that has the same packages installed as the original build environment back then. Software is expected to build reproducible in this environment and many ecosystems already do by default (Rust for example, to name one).

    - https://github.com/kpcyrd/rebuilderd - This monitors the packages in Arch Linux, runs archlinux-repro on all of them and hosts the results. There are other projects supported but Arch Linux works best at the moment, and archlinux-repro offers the best integration I'm currently aware of.

    There are surprisingly few people interested in running this stack on their own for verification purpose though.

    Yes, many times.

    Arch reproduces all published packages and reproducing a package as a user is as simple as running `repro pkgname.pkg.tar.gz`.

    Do note we have multiple rebuilders. The tooling is written so you should be able to reproduce Arch packages on any distribution, but we still struggle with packages embedding "uname" into the binaries still.

    You need to use https://github.com/archlinux/archlinux-repro and set the CACHEDIR to the correct location with all the packages used in the build.
