Comment:

 There is a patch for review in branch `bug_25339_v2`, using `buster` to
 build https-everywhere:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/boklm/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_25339_v2&id=734a41c0f986989163ff7536ff84a2a03e00d5cc

 However `buster` is not a stable release yet, so I am wondering how likely
 it is that an update, for instance on the `zip` package, would break the
 reproducibility of the build. Ubuntu Artful is a stable release, so it
 might be less likely to have big updates.
