Bug#1021516: ssocr: reproducible-builds: date in ssocr manpage

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Source: ssocr
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 date is embedded in /usr/share/man/man1/ssocr.1.gz:

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

  TH·ssocr·1·"2023-11-10"·"2.22.1"·"OCR·for·seven·segment·displays"
  vs.
  TH·ssocr·1·"2022-10-09"·"2.22.1"·"OCR·for·seven·segment·displays"

The attached patch to the upstream Makefile fixes this by using
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to determine the date to embed in the manpage.

According to my local tests, with this patch applied, and the patch
applied to fix build paths from #1021514, ssocr should build
reproducibly on tests.reproducible-builds.org!

Thanks for maintaining ssocr!

live well,
  vagrant
