The SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH mechanism for reproducible builds require some date with -u and -d switch to print the date string of another time. In other words it requires some date that behaves like the GNU date.
Respect this and search a working date, error on no working version. Signed-off-by: Andreas Bießmann <andreas.de...@googlemail.com> --- This commit tries to figure out if we have a date variant available that supports the '-u' and '-d "@0"' switches. It errors on non-working variants of date. To respect *BSD host systems search for gdate and date.gnu. Those pre- and suffixes are widespread used for the GNU variant of a tool also avialable on *BSD systems.
