One issue is that it uses the __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros of the C preprocessor to display the time of build in the online help. We believe this information not to be really useful to users as they can always look at the package data and metadata to figure it out. The attached patch simply removes this information. All non-documentation packages can then be built reproducibly with our current experimental framework.

Checking for a specific dpkg version here is deemed too much work, just like using a temporary file here and depends a too high requirement for this minor usecase. After all, it didn't work at all before, so we break nobody here and can fix it if someone complains (with a patch). 2014-11-09T20:45:55Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2014-11-09T14:40:19Z urn:sha1:374f8492e6f109e8427816a8f513e5e8feda9049 dpkg wants to know about a package before it can be put on hold, so we have to at least hint about its existance in the available file it "maintaince" to know about such stuff. The simple thing would probably be to just feed all Packages files into dpkg as well, but what would be the point really? Exactly, so we take a shortcut here and just create dummies in the available file if we need to which isn't going to be that common as usually you are holding packages back and not off. Who would have thought that a simple feature like setting a package on hold requires more than 200 lines of code… at least with the testcase it is now explicitly tested code. 2014-11-09T20:45:55Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2014-11-08T19:44:44Z urn:sha1:d9e518c6f7dc0ad464495b586d1b8e115d54d41a Git-Dch: Ignore 2014-11-09T00:26:07Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2014-11-08T17:14:46Z urn:sha1:ad7e0941b376d792911f240377094a2e78ca8756 By convention, if I run a tool with --help or --version I expect it to exit successfully with the usage, while if I do call it wrong (like without any parameters) I expect the usage message shown with a non-zero exit. 2014-03-13T12:58:45Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2014-03-05T21:11:25Z urn:sha1:453b82a388013e522b3a1b9fcd6ed0810dab1f4f Beside being a bit cleaner it hopefully also resolves oddball problems I have with high levels of parallel jobs.
