Bug#1113809: ms-gsl: invalid date line in debian/changelog

[Chris Lamb]

Source: ms-gsl
Version: 4.0.0-3.2
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy § 4.4
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that
ms-gsl could not be built reproducibly. This was because the changelogentry for the 4.0.0-3.2 upload had an invalid date line:

 -- Steve Robbins <smr at debian.org>  Sun, 24 Aug 2025 12:32:13 PM -0500
                                                              ^^

According to Policy § 4.4, this is an invalid format. (It _also_
affects reproducibility as a value for SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH cannot be
parsed; however, that is not the justification for the severity.)

Trivial patch attached.
