hi Laurent, what do you think of the proposed patch?
for your convinience: (see https://bugs.debian.org/1017372 for more explainations but this is the diff) Subject: [PATCH] configure.ac: Avoid embedding the date in the version. Use the version from the last debian/changelog entry, otherwise the build will differ if built on a different year and week and from git builds vs. builds from source tarball. --- configure.ac | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index 6e00c0c..0de1856 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ AC_INIT([plymouth], - m4_esyscmd_s([date +%y.%V.$(git rev-list $(git describe --abbrev=0)..HEAD --count) || echo 0]), + m4_esyscmd_s([dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field Version]), -- cheers, Holger ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ holger@(debian|reproducible-builds|layer-acht).org ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ OpenPGP: B8BF54137B09D35CF026FE9D 091AB856069AAA1C ⠈⠳⣄ Some people say that the climate crisis is something that we all have created, but that is not true, because if everyone is guilty then no one is to blame. And someone is to blame. Some people, some companies, some decision-makers in particular, have known exactly what priceless values they have been sacrificing to continue making unimaginable amounts of money. (Greta Thunberg)
