Subject: swift-im: reproducible builds: Embeds build date in /usr/bin/swiften-config

Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2022 20:45:50 -0800

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Source: swift-im
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: reproducible-builds@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: timestamps
X-Debbugs-Cc: reproducible-bugs@lists.alioth.debian.org

The build date is embedded in /usr/bin/swiften-config:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/bookworm/amd64/diffoscope-results/swift-im.html

  20221108
  vs.
  20231213

The attached patch to debian/rules fixes this by creating a
VERSION.swift file with the upstream version before running the build,
which is read to get the version information so that it does not fall
back to a date for a version string.

According to my local tests, With this patch applied swift-im should
build reproducibly on tests.reproducible-builds.org!

Thanks for maintaining swift-im!

live well,
