Source: modglue Version: 1.17-2.4 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch upstream User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: timestamps hostname X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Hi! While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed that modglue could not be built reproducibly. It embeds the build date into the binary. The attached patch strips this to enable reproducible building. Regards, Reiner [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
