Hi! While working on Debian's “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed that tox doesn't build reproducibly. During build the current date is embedded into the manpage. The attached patch uses the date from the latest changelog entry instead. Regards, Reiner [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
