Description
Apparently the Debian packages for Temurin 7, 11 and 17 have been changed a few days ago without increasing the version information (both package file name and internal version number visible in apt-cache). This leads to problems with reproducibility. Binaries that ought to be identical have different MD5SUMs. It makes Temurin literally unusable for any software escrow service.
Contributor guide
Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue; begin by tracing how Debian packages for Temurin 7, 11, and 17 are generated and how their package and internal versions are set. Done means changed packages have distinct filenames and apt-cache versions, with reproducible binaries verified by matching MD5SUMs.
