Source: ntp Version: 1:4.2.8p8+dfsg-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch upstream User: reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: timestamps X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org
Hi! While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed that ntp could not be built reproducibly. It embeds the build time into the version string. The attached patch removes this, so that it can be built reproducibly. Regards, Reiner [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
