Bug#1007185: btrfsmaintenance: reproducible builds: Timestamp embedded in manpage

[Vagrant Cascadian]

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

The build timestamp is embedded in
/usr/share/man/man8/btrfsmaintenance.8.gz:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/arm64/diffoscope-results/btrfsmaintenance.html

  .TH·BTRFSMAINTENANCE·8·"12·March,·2022"·v0.5
  vs.
  .TH·BTRFSMAINTENANCE·8·"13·March,·2022"·v0.5

The attached patch fixes this by passing the --utc argument to date in
debian/create-man-page.sh and by using a locale-independent date format.


With this patch applied, btrfsmaintenance should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org!


Thanks for maintaining btrfsmaintenance!


live well,
  vagrant
