Hi! While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed that thuban could not be built reproducibly. The build date is embedded into a manpage generated by docbook2x-man The attached patch fixes this by using the date from the latest changelog entry instead. Regards, Reiner [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
