From 42ffa51fd46bc6fd4bf2c244f00a80df31d01596 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vagrant Cascadian Date: Sun, 12 Jun 2016 06:07:07 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Use C locale when setting CC_VERSION_STRING and LD_VERSION_STRING. The output reported may be locale-dependent, which results in unreproducible builds. $ LANG=C ld --version | head -n 1 GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.26 $ LANG=it_CH.UTF-8 ld --version | head -n 1 ld di GNU (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.26 Forcing LC_ALL=C ensures the output is consistant regardless of the build environment.
