Source: boost1.74 Severity: normal Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: timestamps X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
The build dates and timestamps are embedded in various .html documentation: https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/bookworm/amd64/diffoscope-results/boost1.74.html /usr/share/doc/libboost1.74-doc/doc/html/accumulators.html <td·align="left"><p><small>Last·revised:·May·17,·2024·at·23:22:24·GMT</small></p></td> vs. <td·align="left"><p><small>Last·revised:·April·15,·2023·at·19:43:52·GMT</small></p></td> The attached patch fixes this by removing the date and timestamp lines from several files, and replacing documentations examples for the use of __TIME__ and __DATE__ with a fixed time and date. According to my local tests, with this patch applied, boost1.74 should build reproducibly on tests.reproducible-builds.org once it migrates to testing! There are some outstanding issues (e.g. build paths) that are only tested on unstable and experimental. Thanks for maintaining boost1.74! live well, vagrant
