Hi,
since this bug has not seen maintainer action for several months now and
because fontconfig is one of the last remaining bits that make a
Priority:Standard chroot unreproducible, I'd like to propose to NMU fontconfig
with the attached patch.
Essentially, I took the patch by Chris Lamb and modified it so that
uuid_generate_sha1() will be used if SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set. The original
behaviour is retained without SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH being set. This should be the
solution with zero impact on normal installations while making those
installations that care (like reproducible chroot or image creation)
reproducible.
If I don't get a NACK from you on this, I plan to upload to DELAYED/10 in two
weeks.
Thanks!
cheers, josch
