The description for build-compare describes it as "This package contains
scripts to find out if the build result differs to a former build." More
specifically this contains a script that will display differences between
"packages." It works with rpms, tarballs and other various types of
packages.
The idea is that it will eventually be used in Yocto to check for differences
between sstate so that we can check for build reproducibility. It will
also be used once an updateable sdk is in place, so that packages that
have different hashes but are not different in contents, don't get updated.
It could also be used in the same manner when updating packages from a
package feed.
