[Pkg-phototools-devel] Bug#827115: netpbm: please honour SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to allow reproducible output

[Andreas Tille]

Control: tags -1 - patch

Hi,

thanks a lot for your effort to enable reproducible builds, which I
really like to support.  Unfortunately your patch remained unapplied
by the Maintainers of this package.  I recently moved the package to
the Debian Phototools team and try to have a look *from time to time*
(=I do not feel like a responsible Uploader due to time constraints
but I'd volunteer to do team uploads for reasons I consider important
and reproducible builds belong to this.)

I tried to apply your patch to the latest upstream version which I just
uploaded.  Unfortunately every single chunk of the patch is rejected.  I
had a quick look and realised that the code changed in a way that it is
really hard to adapt the patches and I gave up.  I'd happily upload a
package quickly if you could come up with a new patch.  Feel free to
ping me about this.

Kind regards
   Andreas.
