Message #5 received at submit@bugs.debian.org (full text, mbox, reply):
Package: libreoffice-common
Version: 4:24.2.0-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
X-Debbugs-Cc: peter@pblackman.plus.com
Dear Maintainer,
When creating pdf files from odt files, soffice writes a CreationDate field
which contains the actual build date/time. This varies with every build.
For an example, see the bottom of
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/trixie/amd64/diffoscope-results/winff.html
soffice could use the creation date of the input odt file,
or even SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH instead of the current system date.
Regards,
Peter

Then you should have filed it upstream :). Didn't write the reportbug
text for no reason :)
Did now: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160033

I think there wven was an option to actually not export this at all (or
I misremember) but it's probably not exposed to --convert-to etc. unless
extra configuration.
Anyway, forwarded.
