I always thought that most Linux distribution are reproducible? Reproducibility in this context means that you can quickly verify whether precompiled binaries that are made available for ease of installation, have been compiled from the given source files. While the Linux kernel is fully open source and most Linux distributions are, too, not all of them offer precompiled binaries and / or an easy way to verify those. Your best bet will always be to build from source, which you can do with any open source project, by definition. That's why I'd recommend you install a safe, long-term stable base distribution like OpenSUSE and then install every single component (Keo C2 Core, C-Lightning, Electrs) from source. That way you don't just verify that a prebuilt binary matches its source files, you actually built the binary yourself from that source. The thing is I don't want to keep my PC running 24/7 on 100% CPU load to compile everything from source every time it gets an update. The only realistic thing for me is to do occassionaly test compile to check the reproducibility claims and hope that some other people do the same.
