The error seems to come from this code: https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/blob/v8.1.3/sphinx/config.py#L637-L665 which replaces the current year in copyright with year from SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, but only if source_date_epoch_year < current_year. Because the test-copyright-multiline/conf.py file hardcodes 2025 and does not have any dynamic content, to make the test pass I can just make a no-change upload with 2025 in debian/changelog. Even in a year, when it's 2026, it will still pass, because of the condition I mentioned above (provided the code does not change). Does this plan sound good to you? -- Dmitry Shachnev
