The build timestamp is embedded in u2f-host.pdf:

  ./usr/share/doc/libu2f-host-dev/u2f-host.pdf

  December·20,·2022


The attached patch fixes this by setting FORCE_SOURCE_DATE=1 in
debian/rules, which texlive needs in order to respect SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH,
which is set during debian package builds to the timestamp in the latest
debian/changelog entry.

https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/source-date-epoch/

With this patch applied, libu2f-host should build reproducibly on
tests.reproducible-builds.org.


Thanks for maintaining libu2f-host!


live well,
