[Pkg-running-devel] Bug#788754: antpm: please make the build reproducible

[Dhole]

Source: antpm
Version: 1.16-8
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: timestamps

Hi!

While working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
that antpm could not be built reproducibly.

The attached patch removes extra timestamps from the build system.
Specifically, the patch avoids the the usage of the __DATE__ and
__TIME__ C macro which embed timestamps during the compilation and make
the package build unreproducible.
Once applied, antpm can be built reproducibly in our current
experimental framework.
