Bug#788955: rivet: please make the build reproducible

[Maria Valentina Marin]

Source: rivet
Version: 1.8.3-1.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

While working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
that rivet could not be built reproducibly.

The attached patch changes the value of HTML_TIMESTAMP in upstream's
doxyfile from YES to NO. Once applied the binary package rivet-reference
can be built reproducibly in our current experimental framework.

The binary package rivet-user-manual though is still unreproducible.

Please also consider forwarding this patch upstream.

Thanks!
