Bug#1000836: libu2f-host: reproducible builds: Embedded timestamp in u2f-host.pdf

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Source: libu2f-host
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: timestamps
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bugs at lists.alioth.debian.org

The build timestamp is embedded in u2f-host.pdf:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/diffoscope-results/libu2f-host.html

  ./usr/share/doc/libu2f-host-dev/u2f-host.pdf

  November·15,·2021
  vs.
  December·20,·2022


The attached patch fixes this by setting FORCE_SOURCE_DATE=1 in
debian/rules, which texlive needs in order to respect SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH,
which is set during debian package builds to the timestamp in the latest
debian/changelog entry.

  https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/source-date-epoch/

With this patch applied, libu2f-host should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org.


Thanks for maintaining libu2f-host!


live well,
