Bernhard M. Wiedemann commented on FOP-2854:
--------------------------------------------
Made at patch for CreationDate at
[https://github.com/apache/xmlgraphics-fop/pull/65]
However, I also found that our build-compare tool only showed the first diff,
so there are indeed more details to get right.

> CreationDate in PDF metadata breaks reproducible builds

> Key: FOP-2854
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2854
> Project: FOP
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: renderer/pdf
> Affects Versions: 2.3
> Environment: Debian GNU/Linux
> Reporter: Filippo Rusconi
> Priority: Major
>
> Greetings,
> I would like to report that the CreationDate value that is set in the PDF
> file changes at each run. This is problematic because that makes it
> impossible to run FOP in the context of reproducible builds (see
> https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds).
> Would it be possible to create an option to set that date value manually or
> some equivalent solution to this problem ?
> Thank you so much for your work on FOP !
> Regards,
> Filippo
