Package: jargon-text
Version: 4.4.7-4
Severity: wishlist
Control: user -1 [email protected]
Control: usertags -1 environment
Control: tags -1 patch
We're hoping to make packages reproducible regardless of the locale.
however, elinks changes its output dependent on the locale, which
affects the generation of jargon.txt. See:
https://reproducible.debian.net/dbd/unstable/amd64/jargon-text_4.4.7-4.debbindiff.html
The attached patch forces elinks to use C.UTF-8 so that jargon.txt is
always produce in Unicode.
There may be other issues that make the build unreproducible as well.
