Source: mapivi Version: 0.9.7-1.1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: timestamps X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Hi, While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed that mapivi could not be built reproducibly. The attached patch sets the embedded date in the man pages generated by podman to the latest debian/changelog entry timestamp instead of local date. Once applied, mapivi can be built reproducibly in our current experimental framework. [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds Regards, -- Dhole
