The attached patch fixes this by setting FORCE_SOURCE_DATE=1 in
debian/rules, which texlive needs in order to respect SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH,
which is set during debian package builds to the timestamp in the latest
debian/changelog entry.

With this patch applied, malaga should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org

Thanks for maintaining malaga!
