Hi! While working on Debian's “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed that armada-backlight doesn't build reproducibly. The build date is embedded into the manpage. The attached patch fixes this by using the date from the latest changelog entry. Regards, Reiner [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
