Comment (by jsha):

 gk, you say that deleting the rulesets.sqlite file before rebuilding
 results in a reproducible build. I get the same results locally. Is there
 any reason not to make that the default behavior? Reusing the existing DB
 doesn't save any build time, since each build rewrites all of the tables.
