Are these perllocal.pod files really useless? In Debian this problem is filed as <https://bugs.debian.org/835815>. Apparently upstream ended up using SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH: https://github.com/Perl-Toolchain-Gang/ExtUtils-MakeMaker/pull/279 Should we do that instead? Or are perllocal.pod pointless anyway? Thanks, Ludo’.
