[Reproducible-builds] probably caused by timezone changes

thanks

Hi Alexandre,

thanks for caring about reproducible builds and filing bugs against your own 
packages! :-)

Without further investigating #790844 looks very similar to #786694 and 
#789495, the latter was easily fixed by adding texinfo to build-depends - 
though this will not make the package build reproducibly as you can also see 
in 
https://reproducible.debian.net/dbd/unstable/amd64/rcs_5.9.4-3.debbindiff.html

To achieve reproducibility you will also need to normalize the timezone during 
build (eg set TZ=UTC) or wait til debhelper does this for you.


cheers,
	Holger
