Package: gfortran-7
Version: 0.7.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream patch
gfortran creates binary .mod and .smod files. These are compressed files, which
look like:
(viewed with e.g. zmore /usr/include/cgns.mod ):
GFORTRAN module version '14' created from
/build/libcgns-XmhIxt/libcgns-3.3.0/src/cgns_f.F90
(() () () () () () () () () () () () () () () () () () () () () () () ()
() () ())
The full path of the compiled fortran file is included, which can break
reproducible builds.
A trivial patch is included, to strip the path.
