Hi,

python package currently does not build in a reproducible way:

    /gnu/store/dy3xh053ahkhrp2jamggq8cpsyvp8mg0-python-3.10.7 contents differ:
      local hash: 0iw988a0573bc7ag1c3da23cvcl0xp166l1zazi31i9cf1faprmh

    1 store items were analyzed:
      - 0 (0.0%) were identical
      - 1 (100.0%) differed
      - 0 (0.0%) were inconclusive

It however *is* reproducible on a single machine, --rounds=30 finished
successfully.  Possible cause seems to be described in this opensuse issue:

    https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1049186

The patch linked seems fairly simple:

    https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/687278#revision_details_6

As far as I can tell, we currently do not carry patch like this and in 3.10.7 it
is not present upstream.

Have a nice day,
W.
