[Reproducible-builds] GSoC 2015 Week 12: Move forward reproducible builds

2015-08-19 Thread Maria Valentina Marin 
Hello,

Last week I worked on the following problems:

1. texlive-bin


I made a new patch which uses UTC in the printed timestamps to
also make the timezone reproducible. A version of texlive-bin containing
this patch can be found in the reproducible builds git repository and
package repository.

- Upstream bug report:
http://tug.org/pipermail/pdftex/2015-August/008962.html

2. man2html


As part of the effort to make bash reproducible I patched man2html to
produce reproducible html output by using $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH.

- https://bugs.debian.org/796130

3. bash  gap-guava
-

This packages were missing the tag fonts_in_pdf_files [1] Packages.yml
has been updated to contain this information.

4. wiki updates
-

I modified the TimestampsProposal wiki entry by adding links to the bug
reports against texlive-bin, texi2html, doxygen, and CDBS [2].


Kind Regards,
akira

[Reproducible-builds] GSoC 2015 Week 12: Move forward reproducible builds

2015-08-16 Thread Dhole 

-- Hi,

This week I have updated the patch for qt4-x11 that honours
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH when embedding dates with the qthelpgenerator tool to
target the newest version in Debian (the patched files didn't change in
the update though). I have pushed the changes in our git repository, I
have uploaded the updated patched package to our custom APT, and I have
attached the updated patch to the bug entry.(git, APT, bug).

I have also improved the freeipmi patch I sent last week applying all
the suggestions Josch made on the mailing list. I sent the patch to the
already opened bug entry:
https://bugs.debian.org/794792

I have fixed some individual packages that were affected by different
issues that didn't have notes yet. I have also added them in the notes
with the bugs and related issues.

timestamps_in_documentation_generated_by_podman
- xlsx2csv
https://bugs.debian.org/795203

timezone difference in metadata timestamps in zip files
- adblock-plus
https://bugs.debian.org/795395

embedded dates (build time) in man pages
- blkreplay
https://bugs.debian.org/795392
- libitpp
https://bugs.debian.org/795394

This Friday I flew to Germany to attend the DebConf15 in Heidelberg,
where I'll meet some of the reproducible builds folks :) (I've already
met 3 of them!). I'll attend the conference until it finishes (22nd of
August).

Best regards,
Dhole
