Bug#996679: flightgear: reproducible builds: Embeds date in .xml file dependent on timezone

Vagrant Cascadian vagrant at reproducible-builds.org
Sun Oct 17 10:01:02 BST 2021


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

The timezone affects the date embedded in an .xml file:

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

  ./usr/share/metainfo/org.flightgear.FlightGear.metainfo.xml

  <release·version="2020.3.6"·date="2021-02-13"·/>
vs.
  <release·version="2020.3.6"·date="2021-02-14"·/>

The attached patch fixes this by setting the timestamp to use the UTC
timezone.


With this patch applied, flightgear should become reproducible on
tests.reproducible-builds.org.


Thanks for maintaining flightgear!


live well,
