Source: stacer Version: 1.6.3+ds-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: timezone X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Hi, Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that stacer could not be built reproducibly. This is because the build system embeds a timezone-varying date into the fr.quentium.stacer.metainfo.xml file: │ │ │ │ │ <provides> │ │ │ │ │ <binary>stacer</binary> │ │ │ │ │ </provides> │ │ │ │ │ <releases> │ │ │ │ │ - <release version="1.6.3" date="2026-03-18"> │ │ │ │ │ + <release version="1.6.3" date="2026-03-19"> Patch attached that requests CMake to generate this timestamp (from SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH) with the UTC timestamp.
