📄 Description

Firejail is currently not building reproducibly 1.
The order of object files is random while linking. This is easily fixed by sorting the filelists.

A timestamp from the current date is also embedded into manpages.
By making use of the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH variable [2](when available), the timestamp can
be set to a deterministic one.
