Adam Fuchs commented on ACCUMULO-1051:
--------------------------------------

Interesting, but when do we care about comparing the serialization of
authorizations?

> The same set of authorizations may not serialize to the same value each time, if specified in a different order when constructed (like new Authorizations("a", "b") and new Authorizations("b", "a")), because serialization reproducibility depends on the insert order in the underlying HashSet.
> So, one could get the following to happen:
> {code:java}
> true == auths1.equals(auths2) && !auths1.serialize().equals(auths2.serialize());
> {code}
