Hi! While working on Debian's “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed that pciutils doesn't build reproducibly. While gzipping the pci.ids file, a timestamp is embedded into the gzip header. The attached patch prevents that gzip adds such a timestamp. Regards, Reiner [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
