Bug: idump give different output even without any modification, on Debian

[allaboutevemirolive]

Following this PR #933, I try to investigate the root of the error and found that there are differences of expected output-test when running idump even without modification, on Debian.

Some sample with $ cat tests/ptests/ptest_ffbdb9af2de10fa.stdout after dumping the output test:

Expected Output:

drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 specials
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 group
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 perms
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 size
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 time
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 symlinks
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 git
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 icons
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 grid

Current output with error after running idump :

drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 icons
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 size
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 symlinks
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 perms
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 group
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 time
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 specials
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 git
drwxr-xr-x - nixbld  1 Jan  1970 grid
