Dear Maintainer, Thanks to the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH [1] support in TL2016, pdf output of makeinfo can be made reproducible, even when using @today in the texi file (when SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH_TEX_PRIMITIVES is set to 1). It would be great to extend the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH support for info output from makeinfo. See a proposed solution in the attached patch. Regards, Alexis Bienvenüe.
