Bug#1010855: longrun: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: longrun
Version: 0.9-22.1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
longrun could not be built reproducibly.

This is because the underlying call to GCC does not respect CFLAGS set
by dpkg-buildflags, which results in the build embedding the current
buildpath.
