[PATCH] build: avoid dynamic dates for reproducibility We were using dates (in documentation, (c) notices etc) based on the build-date; that makes it hard to do reproducible builds, so specify a specific date in the top-level meson file, and use that throughout.
the upstream man-pages are generated for org-mode sources by Emacs. The troff output is not fully compatible with Debian's groff, and elicits a lot of warnings from Lintian. This patch modifies the sources for Debian
fix unreproducible copyright years in man-pages 967b724e7546 ("build: avoid dynamic dates for reproducibility") introduced the `mu_date` variable to hard-code a build-date. This is used for the dates embedded in the texinfo documentation, but `date` is still called to set the copyright years in the man-pages. Use `mu_date` there too.
