Details

beep 1.4.6-1 is not reproducible because /usr/share/man/man1/beep.1.gz upstream's Makefile calls gzip without the --no-name parameter when compressing the manpage, which results in a compression-time timestamp being embedded in the compressed data. I've filed a pull request to fix this with upstream:

Haven't gotten around to test this yet, but upstream has released beep 1.4.7, which should fix the issue, and which seems to have made it into extra already. :-)

looks like it worked, thanks for taking care of this and pinging upstream and thanks a lot for your gadget at 36c3 ;-)
