Source: avahi Version: 0.6.32~rc+dfsg-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch 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 avahi could not be built reproducibly. During build a minimal default ChangeLog is generated by autotools, which is used as the upstream changelog. It includes a timestamp of the build, which makes it unreproducible. The attached patch uses the docs/NEWS file as upstream changelog instead, as the autogenerated stub is not useful at all, and the NEWS file actually is a detailed changelog by upstream. Regards, Reiner [1]: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds
