We have the following bug reported to the Debian package of
Inline-Java (https://bugs.debian.org/778983):
It doesn't seem to be a bug in the packaging, so you may want to take
a look. Thanks!

Hi,
While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that libinline-java-perl could not be built reproducibly.
The attached patch removes randomness from the build system. Once
applied, libinline-java-perl can be built reproducibly in our reproducible
toolchain.
