Source: bochs Version: 2.6.11+dfsg-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: timestamps X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-b...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Hi, Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that bochs could not be built reproducibly. Whilst Bochs now reads a determistic date it reformatted it using the date(1) utility with a command-line that was not orthogonal to the build system's environment, resulting in the aforementioned static date appearing to change in extreme timezones. Patch attached. [0] https://reproducible-builds.org/ Regards, -- ,''`. : :' : Chris Lamb `. `'` la...@debian.org / chris-lamb.co.uk `-
