Hi László, First, thanks for maintaining squashfs-tools! As I understand it, upstream has been replaced with a more-active fork maintained by Lynxis Couzens: https://github.com/squashfskit/squashfskit § This contains a number of patches that I, Intrigeri & Tails are using for generating reproducibile output, such as: From: Chris Lamb <[email protected]> Date: Sun, 6 Jan 2019 11:03:42 +0100 Subject: If SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set, use that timestamp for the mkfs time. See https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/ for more information about this environment variable. Based on a patch by Alexander Couzens <lynxis@fe...> posted on https://sourceforge.net/p/squashfs/mailman/message/34673610/ --- squashfs-tools/mksquashfs.c | 33 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 33 insertions(+) and: From: intrigeri <[email protected]> Date: Sun, 6 Jan 2019 11:07:08 +0100 Subject: If SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set, also clamp content timestamps with that value. Based on a patch by Alexander Couzens <lynxis@fe...> posted on https://sourceforge.net/p/squashfs/mailman/message/34673610/ Updated by Chris Lamb <[email protected]> to use (time_t)0 as a sentinel value over -1. --- squashfs-tools/mksquashfs.c | 13 ++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) Although I do note this latter one would require a slightly different rebase due to, at least: [ Michael Vogt <[email protected]> ] * debian/patches/0005-add-fstime.patch: initializing the time_t variable with (time_t)0 instead of (time_t)-1 to avoid creating all filesystems on "Wed Dec 31 23:59:59 1969" … that was part of the squashfs-tools 1:4.3-6 upload. § Anyway, thanks again for maintaining this package.
