Bug ID: 285630
Summary: makefs: cd9660 RockRidge extensions ignore timestamp
provided by -T
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
The cd9660 RockRidge extensions specify a TX record that stores the timestamp
from the underlying inode. However, makefs' implementation of the TF record
ignores a timestamp passed using the -T flag, making the resulting ISO image
nonreproducible.
This issue can be observed in the top-level directories by running 'diffoscope'
on two 'bootonly.iso' images that have been built back-to-back with a fixed
timestamp ('-T 1742574909'):

The dot directory record has the appropriate timestamp set, but the rest of the
directories do not.
