Hi, While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed that kernel-handbook could not be built reproducibly. A date and timestamp is embedded in the documentation using the local timezone and locale. The attached patch fixes this by fixing the timezone to UTC and the locale to "C" in the timestamp. Once applied, kernel-handbook can be built reproducibly in our current experimental framework. [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds Regards, -- Dhole
