Bug#1011104: convlit: reproducible-builds: embedded build paths in /usr/bin/clit

[Vagrant Cascadian]

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

The build path is embedded in /usr/bin/clit:

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

  /build/1st/convlit-1.8/clit18/clit.c:109
  vs.
  /build/2/convlit-1.8/2nd/clit18/clit.c:109

The first patch fixes this by passing -ffile-prefix-map to CFLAGS in
debian/rules, which avoids embedding the build paths in the binaries.

The second patch fixes this by completing the transition to the dh build
system, which includes -ffile-prefix-map in CFLAGS by default.


With these patches applied, convlit should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org!
