Notes about issue timestamps_in_ppu_generated_by_fpc in buster

Identifier: timestamps_in_ppu_generated_by_fpc
Suites: unstable / trixie / bookworm / bullseye / buster / experimental
URL: https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds/TimestampsInPPUGeneratedByFPC
Description: The freepascal compiler (fpc) embeds timestamps into unit files (ppu).
This is not a problem when the source file is not modified at build time, but if eg. the source file is patched by a debian patch from quilt, the timestamp of this file is set to build time and propagated in the binary.
