Foreman » Packaging

Some packages on the deb.theforeman.org repo have been repeatingly changed but the version number stayed the same.

I noticed that because I maintain an archive of packages from this repo.

I see this happening for at least the following packages on both trusty and xenial:

foreman:
ruby-hammer-cli_0.7.0-1_all
ruby-dynflow_0.8.11-1_all
ruby-libvirt_0.6.0-2_amd64

foreman-plugins:
ruby-foreman-default-hostgroup_4.0.0-1_all
ruby-foreman-bootdisk_8.0.2-1_all
ruby-foreman-ansible_1.0-1_all
ruby-foreman-azure_1.0.1-1_all
ruby-foreman-templates_3.0.0-1_all
ruby-foreman-templates_3.1.0-1_all
ruby-foreman-xen_0.3.1-1_all
ruby-smart-proxy-salt_2.1.7-1_all
ruby-smart-proxy-chef_0.1.8-1_all
ruby-puppetdb-foreman_1.0.4-1_all
ruby-foreman-cockpit_2.0.2-1_all

Example:
First I have got ruby-foreman-azure_1.0.1-1_all.deb with md5sum 6f6b4e7e545bbb4f0c42b12b2d24175d, a few days later you provided ruby-foreman-azure_1.0.1-1_all.deb with md5sum 6878d695bc006ee74602d1f2cf518752. When I compare the content of both packages, the diff is only a diffent date in /var/lib/foreman/public/assets/foreman_azure/foreman_azure.json.
