Hi, While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed that wcd could not be built reproducibly. The attached patch sets the embedded date in the man pages generated by podman to the latest debian/changelog entry timestamp instead of local date. Once applied, wcd can be built reproducibly in our current experimental framework. [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds Regards, -- Dhole
