This is expected: each hello binary contains its own store
directory:
$ grep /gnu/store/a462kby1q51ndvxdv3b6p0rsixxrgx1h-hello-2.10 \
/gnu/store/a462kby1q51ndvxdv3b6p0rsixxrgx1h-hello-2.10/bin/hello
Binary file [...]/bin/hello matches.
In the above case you're changing the package name and hence the
hash, and both of those things change the store directory
(obviously, or you wouldn't have three things to compare). The
string embedded inside each hello binary will also differ. In
this case, it's the
/gnu/store/a462kby1q51ndvxdv3b6p0rsixxrgx1h-hello-2.10/share/locale
used to look up translations, but packages are free to refer to
themselves as much as they like. Without inside information, one
can never assume two different outputs are identical.
Kind regards,
T G-R
