Description Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-31 00:42:40 UTC
Setting SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to a specific timestamp (for reproducible builds) triggers an assertion failure from py-Babel, like so (py27-pip-8.0.2.log):

AssertionError
*** Error code 1

This is because sphinx/util/i18n.py has:
            date = gmtime(float(source_date_epoch))
while babel expects a datetime

Comment 1 Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-05-31 01:50:44 UTC
I'm continuing my testing with just the i18n.py change extracted from the upstream commit, as here: https://github.com/emaste/freebsd-ports/commit/faecb690882d421dd4bd11cd960926ab63918696
Comment 2 Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-06-13 21:07:36 UTC
This will be fixed by updating to a new version of py-sphinx, but if that's not going to happen soon the patch file in my github commit referenced in comment 1 allowed my test poudriere runs (for my talk) to complete.
