Dear Maintainer, src:gl2ps fails to build reproducibly because its binary package libgl2ps-doc vendors a pdf that saves in build date. Since it does not add any real value to get _Build Date_ into the documentation, I suppose the cheapest way to get it building reproducibly is to simply not vendoring such a date in its documentation. I'll shortly push this to salsa, and I wish to upload post bullseye release. I'm pasting the patch below for ref as well.
