as long as there is no clear policy on how the error message should be
removed, personally I will not do it.

if we consider this is a bug in the programs should we report it
upstream with the devs, maybe even attach our patches?

if the thing is just a matter of personal taste only we should move on..

regards,
Alin

Why are there so much rebuilds?
Downloading ~200MiB everyday sucks.


This happends because there are differences one ONE file
usr/share/libreoffice/basis3.3/share/registry/res/registry_af.xcd

Other libreoffice packages republish randomly for the same reason the
kernel does, maintainers have not fixed the "file-contains-current-date"
and "file-contains-date-and-time" build system watnings.

What needs to be fixed here?

Patch libreoffice to not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros. Look for
example at the writer build log:
https://build.opensuse.org/stage/package/rawlog?arch=x86_64&package=libreoffice-writer&project=openSUSE%3ATumbleweed&repository=standard

and search for file-contains-date-and-time to see where these macros
were used.

Should we assign some badness value to this warning ie make it an
error? There are currently 118 packages in Factory with
file-contains-date-and-time.
