From f2e2aeac8d954cd16e00c40ab8e186d2daebc1e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Bernhard M. Wiedemann" Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2023 09:11:30 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Avoid claiming copyright for future years MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When compiling today's version in 2039, the man-pages would state Copyright © 2022-2039 Dirk-Jan C. Binnema. License GPLv3+: GNU GPL version 3 which cannot be correct, since nobody did any copyrightable work in 2039 in that version. Additionally, a copyright from 2023 will usually be valid for 70 years after death of the author, so even if you forget to update it later, there is no harm. This patch was done while working on reproducible builds for openSUSE. --- man/copyright.inc.in | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/man/copyright.inc.in b/man/copyright.inc.in index 2e026707..628e4a9c 100644 --- a/man/copyright.inc.in +++ b/man/copyright.inc.in @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ This manpage is part of ~mu~ @VERSION@. -Copyright © 2008-@YEAR@ Dirk-Jan C.
