[Reproducible-builds] Bug#808667: libmouse-perl: please make the build reproducible

Source: libmouse-perl
Version: 2.4.5-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that libmouse-perl could not be built reproducibly.
During build a file is generated with references to other files.
The file list is embedded in readdir order, which is not deterministic.

The attached patch sorts the list before the filenames are embedded.

Regards,
 Reiner
