Unpredictable checksum #3613
Description
Hello,
Here is the command I run:
npm exec web-ext -- build --overwrite-dest --source-dir=distribution -a . -n package.zip
md5sum package.zip
Everytime I run this command (without changing anything in distribution), the checksum (a priori containing some file modification timestamps) will be different.
However paradoxically, extension stores, like the Firefox store, will ask developers to provide steps to build the extension package and require it to produce the exact same checksum as the ZIP that you submitted.
How can I build a ZIP for my extension that would always produce the exact same ZIP?
