Package: cloc Version: 1.60-1 User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: timestamps Tags: patch
Hi there-- cloc currently embeds the build date in the manpage. This makes it hard to build reproducibly: https://reproducible.debian.net/dbd/unstable/amd64/cloc_1.60-1.debbindiff.htmlhttps://reproducible.debian.net/dbd/unstable/amd64/cloc_1.60-1.debbindiff.html The attached patch to the build system should fix that. Thanks for maintaining cloc in debian, --dkg

This change forces us to regenerate the manpage each time from the preferred form of modification, and embeds the timestamp from the last debian revision. --- debian/rules | 7 +++++-- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/debian/rules b/debian/rules index 496b0fc..d8d85f4 100755 --- a/debian/rules +++ b/debian/rules @@ -6,6 +6,9 @@ BINDIR = debian/$(PACKAGE)/usr/bin DOCDIR = debian/$(PACKAGE)/usr/share/doc/$(PACKAGE)/doc CHANGELOG = debian/upstream.changelog +PODDATE=$(shell dpkg-parsechangelog -S Date | LC_ALL=C date -u "+%Y-%m-%d" -f -) +export PODDATE + # Run manaually to get an update get-changelog: svn log https://svn.code.sf.net/p/cloc/code | \ @@ -13,8 +16,8 @@ get-changelog: > $(CHANGELOG) override_dh_auto_build: - # If packaged directly from upstream VCS tree - [ -f $(PACKAGE).1 ] || $(MAKE) man + rm -f $(PACKAGE).1 + $(MAKE) man override_dh_auto_install: install -D -m 755 $(BIN) $(BINDIR)/$(PACKAGE) -- 2.1.4
