 The Debian reproducible builds effort tells me that tor is not
 reproducible when the timezone varies: https://tests.reproducible-
 builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/tor.html

 The "reproducible" branch in the https://git-tails.immerda.ch/tor
 repository fixes that for me (tested on top of the tor-0.2.8.4-rc-1
 package).

 It would be nice to have this tiny fix in 0.2.8 final :)
