The file /usr/share/metainfo/org.gnome.Adwaita1.Demo.metainfo.xml contains an embedded build date: https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/libadwaita-1.html <release·version="1.0.2"·date="2023-03-19"> vs. <release·version="1.0.2"·date="2022-02-15"> The attached patch fixes this by removing the call to date from the meson.build file. An alternate option would be to use the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable, and there is a meson example available: https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/source-date-epoch/ This would be better if the package somehow fails to work correctly when there is no date in this file, though ideally no timestamp would be better if possible. With this patch applied, libadwaita-1 should build reproducibly on tests.reproducible-builds.org! Thanks for maintaining libadwaita-1! live well, vagrant

Subject: [PATCH] demo/data/meson.build: Remove build date.
The build date does not appear to be required, and makes the build
unreproducible when built on a different date.
