Follow-up Comment #1, bug #57218 (project groff):

It was pointed out by another reproducible-builds.org member that Debian's
man-db package produces reproducible .ps files, so I dug around a little, and
it turns out debian's groff package has a downstream patch to work around this
issue!

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/groff/blob/master/debian/patches/display-utc-times.patch

This patch should be incorporated upstream if possible. Was it ever proposed
here? Is it suitable for inclusion as-is?
