Bug#977610: webauth: reproducible builds: Embeds username, hostname and build time

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Source: webauth
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: timestamps username hostname
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bugs at lists.alioth.debian.org

The running kernel is embedded in /usr/bin/webauth:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/diffoscope-results/webauth.html

  (Built·by·pbuilder1 at ionos5-amd64·on·2021-12-31·06:30:01·UTC)
  (Built·by·pbuilder2 at i-capture-the-hostname·on·2020-11-28·00:10:17·UTC)


The attached patch fixes this by setting the username and hostname to
UNKNOWN and using SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH for the timestamp.


Thanks for maintaining webauth!


live well,
