[Reproducible-builds] Bug#794779: foxyproxy: please make the build reproducible

Source: foxyproxy
Version: 3.4-1.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that foxyproxy could not be built reproducibly.

The attached patch removes timezone-varying timestamps from the
files compressed with zip. Once applied, foxyproxy can be built
reproducibly in our current experimental framework.
