Bug#983832: d-itg: reproducible builds: Embedded timestamps in PDF files

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Source: d-itg
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 build timestamp is embedded in /usr/share/doc/d-itg/d-itg-manual.pdf:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/bullseye/amd64/diffoscope-results/d-itg.html

  March·29,·2022
  vs.
  February·24,·2021


The attached patch fixes this by setting FORCE_SOURCE_DATE=1 in
debian/rules, which texlive needs in order to respect SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH,
which is set during debian package builds to the timestamp in the latest
debian/changelog entry.

Thanks for maintaining d-itg!


live well,
