  Description     : yet another package rebuilder tool

Given a buildinfo file from a Debian package, generate instructions for
attempting to reproduce the binary packages built from the associated
source and build information.

This package is currently used to create https://beta.tests.reproducible-builds.org/
and should be used for creating many more Debian rebuilder instances in future to
verify the reproducibility of packages distributed by Debian via ftp.debian.org

that is a huge difference already and also because different people contribute
to those two projects and then there's a scheduler and having a different
implementation has it's own inherent value already.
