Source: ebook-speaker Version: 4.1.0-1 Severity: minor Tags: patch upstream User: reproducible-bui...@lists.alioth.debian.org Usertags: buildpath
Dear Maintainer, Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that ebook-speaker could not be built reproducibly, due to `txt2man -p` parsing the last component of the build directory. Patch attached. [0] https://reproducible-builds.org/ Cheers, Daniel P.S. The patch as written is upstreamable. For Debian it might make sense to use «$$(cd .. && dpkg-parsechangelog -SVersion)» so as to have a more detailed version number.
