Lot of works goes into deterministic builds, have fun going down this rabbit hole: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=314403 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=314403

Ah yes, because all operating systems ship with a pristine installation of the latest pdfium.
