Subject: mdate-sh output is timezone dependant triggering rebuilds
Date: Tue, 14 Oct 2014 04:51:28 +0200
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
The output of mdate-sh depends on the local timezone used by the system
which may trigger unneeded rebuilds in some situations (especially when
the packaging machine and the building machine are on different timezones).
