Hi, Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that complexity could not be built reproducibly. This is because an .info file generates a "Copyright 2011 — 2026"-like line based on the current build year, which means the package differs depending on what year you build it. Patch attached that seeds this date from SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH (if it is available.)
