Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed
that frobby could not be built reproducibly.

This is because the _formulas.log file contained a date, likely
timezone-varying. Patch attached that drops all of the somewhat-
useless _formulas.{log,tex,dvi.gz} etc. from the binary package.
altogether.

Thanks for the report and patch!  It has been applied in git [1] and a new version should be uploaded soon.

Version: 0.9.0-6

Urgency: medium
Maintainer: Debian Science Maintainers <debian-science-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>
Changed-By: Doug Torrance <dtorrance@piedmont.edu>
Closes: 942479
Changes:
 frobby (0.9.0-6) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   [ Andreas Tille ]
   * Fix doxygen requirements
   * Point Vcs fields to salsa.debian.org
   * Better solution for Build-Depends
 .
   [ Doug Torrance ]
   * debian/compat
     - Remove file; no longer necessary now that we Build-Depend on
       debhelper-compat.
   * debian/control
     - Bump Standards-Version to 4.5.0.
     - Switch Build-Depend on debhelper to debhelper-compat.
     - Bump to debhelper compatibility level 13.
     - Set Section for libfrobby0 to libs.
     - Add Rules-Requires-Root field.
   * debian/libfrobby-doc.doc-base
     - Update path to documentation. After debhelper v11, it is installed
       under /usr/share/doc/libfrobby-dev, the path for the "main package".
   * debian/patches/avoid_doxygen_bug.patch
     - New patch to avoid a bug in doxygen which causes build failures.
   * debian/rules
     - Enable all hardening flags.
     - Add override_dh_install target. In particular, skip
       installation of _formula.* for the sake of reproducible
       builds.  Thanks to Chris Lamb <lamby@debian.org> for the
       patch (Closes: #942479).
     - Remove override_dh_strip target. It specified a the
       --dbgsym-migration argument and was added in version 0.9.0-3.
       As version 0.9.0-5 is now in stable, the migration is complete.
     - Adjust override_dh_makeshlibs target. -V option was added for a GCC 7
       transition in package version 0.9.0-3, but 0.9.0-5 is now in stable,
       so it has been removed.  But add an -X option so that the frobby
       executable doesn't trigger ldconfig.
   * debian/salsa-ci.yml
     - Add Salsa pipelines config file.
   * debian/watch
     - Use https.
