[Reproducible-builds] Bug#777484: fortunes-bg: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: fortunes-bg
Version: 1.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that fortunes-bg could not be built reproducibly.

The attached patch removes timestamps from the build system. Once
applied, fortunes-bg can be built reproducibly in our current
experimental
framework.
