Hi all, To improve reproducibility for an upstream project that does not rely on a valid QFileInfo::lastModified value, we used the --format-version 1 option to force the use of the older (pre-Qt 5.8) format that does not include the timestamp.
This upstream project uses CMake with AUTORCC enabled, the patch was pretty simple: https://code.wireshark.org/review/31593 For the benefit of other distributions (I also use Arch Linux) and upstream projects, I have documented this here as well: https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/deterministic-build-systems/#cmake-notes If you feel that the recommendations are wrong, feel free to edit the page or discuss it here or on IRC, I aimed at having the peculiarities documented somewhere. -- Kind regards, Peter Wu https://lekensteyn.nl
