this is not the failure, it's actually a line below :)

/«BUILDDIR»/paraview-5.0.1+dfsg1/Plugins/CDIReader/cdilib.c: In function 'file_time':
/«BUILDDIR»/paraview-5.0.1+dfsg1/Plugins/CDIReader/cdilib.c:5462:18: error: storage size of 'mytime' isn't known
   struct timeval mytime;
                  ^

anyway yes, it wouldn't be bad to patch out __DATE__ __TIME__ and
improve reproducibility of this package (looks like there are also other
bits that prever full reproducibility, ftr).

Consider give some time to the maintainer, gladk is usually very quick
at uploading new releases when asked to :)
