Subject: fai: fai-guide.ps embeds timestamps and tempdirs

Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2020 17:20:17 -0700

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

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

The /usr/share/doc/fai-doc/fai-guide.ps.gz embeds timestamps as well as
the temporary directory used when it was generated:

  15 	%DVIPSCommandLine:·dvips·-R0·-o·/tmp/tmpafymsm62/fai-guide.ps	15 	%DVIPSCommandLine:·dvips·-R0·-o·/tmp/tmp82mwtb5p/fai-guide.ps
  16 	%+·/tmp/tmpafymsm62/fai-guide.dvi	16 	%+·/tmp/tmp82mwtb5p/fai-guide.dvi
  17 	%DVIPSParameters:·dpi=600	17 	%DVIPSParameters:·dpi=600
  18 	%DVIPSSource:··TeX·output·2021.10.16:0452	18 	%DVIPSSource:··TeX·output·2020.09.14:0033

The first patch fixes the timestamp issue by passing exporting
FORCE_SOURCE_DATE=1 in debian/rules.

The second patch fixes the other issue by stripping the temporary
directory from the generated fai-guide.ps in the override_dh_installdocs
target in debian/rules.

Thanks for maintaining fai!

live well,
