[Reproducible-builds] Bug#799732: dh-strip-nondeterminism: dh_strip_nondeterminism uses get_source_date_epoch which isn't available (yet)

[Sebastian Harl]

Package: dh-strip-nondeterminism
Version: 0.011-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 3.5

Hi,

version 0.011-1 switched from using $dh{DATE} to get_source_date_epoch()
which was introduced (exported) in debhelper on Aug 12 [1]. However,
there was no release of debhelper since then. The latest version is
9.20150811. Even if it was available, dh-strip-nondeterminism should use
a versioned dependency to make this clear. This let's the script fail
whenever it finds non-deterministic files.

Cheers,
Sebastian
