I miss those too, fwiw.

done.

This is not what is used to decide the severities :), but still it's a
whishlist bug.

If this is not fixed in time for the change I'll open another bug
against expeyes to at least disable the flag.
If for some reason (=> allow us to test your package, maybe?) you want
to do it now adding this to d/rules should be sufficient
DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=reproducible=-timeless

[Reproducible-builds] new default build flag from dpkg: -Wdate-time

2015-11-10 Thread Mattia Rizzolo
[sorry for the double email, messed up with the r-b list address...]

Hi!

As part of the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we added a
"reproducible/timeless" feature area to dpkg which exports -Wdate-time
via CPPFLAGS [1].

In our CI infrastructure we enabled that in Spring.

We now think this is the right time to enable this flag by default.
From our builds, we can only see 4 packages which fail to build due to
this:
subversion + unbound
https://bugs.debian.org/790102
expeyes
https://bugs.debian.org/790103
wsjt
https://bugs.debian.org/804672


Following [2] we're now bringing this up on debian-devel@l.d.o to learn
about for any known issues we may be not aware of, any concerns, etc.

is there any chance you haven't yet heard from us? ;)
Have you also seen https://reproducible-builds.org ?  If not, go
see it, it's awesome!
