From: David Ward on gitlab.com https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-ark/-/issues/39#note_562616785 Focusing on this part: > The tag in the kernel-ark tree is placed on the commit used in os- build to make that release, and the date is the date at which the make release was tagged. We want to use this exact moment as the date in the NVR. But, I believe we should read that from the commit date, not from the system clock. > Make dist-all-rpm is used for testing and development purposes, and expects that there may be changes not from a tagged release, so it can intentionally change the goalpost. If there are local changes, they should be committed locally (not necessarily tagged) and that would affect the commit date though, right? Can we make it so that if there are no local changes — if this is a pristine copy of earlier sources — we get the same NVR? If I am rebuilding a package today from the exact sources that were tagged 3 weeks ago, I believe the date should be 3 weeks ago, not today. _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list -- kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kernel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
