The list entries in the alphabetically grouped dict are not sorted, which results in non-deterministic output for index.html.

This patch was done while working on reproducible builds for openSUSE. --- python/sepolicy/sepolicy/manpage.py | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/python/sepolicy/sepolicy/manpage.py b/python/sepolicy/sepolicy/manpage.py index a488dcbf..62999019 100755 --- a/python/sepolicy/sepolicy/manpage.py +++ b/python/sepolicy/sepolicy/manpage.py @@ -156,7 +156,7 @@ def get_alphabet_manpages(manpage_list): if j.split("/")[-1][0] == i: temp.append(j.split("/")[-1]) - alphabet_manpages[i] = temp + alphabet_manpages[i] = sorted(temp) return alphabet_manpages -- 2.42.0
