It is probably caused by this change: https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/pull/12907 Now, $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is assumed to be UTC time, and then it is converted to the current local time. What would be the right approach here? Do not perform any time zone conversions when $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set, i.e. indent the "if local_time" block by two levels? -- Dmitry Shachnev
