Right, okay. I might suggest attempting to use the build id first (return val of build_id_find_nhdr() would be NULL if build id is not present) and fallback to the timestamp. As far as I'm aware, binaries shipped by Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, and Arch all have build-ids. Gentoo does not, but I expect that's something I can fix. _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
