Screenshot

Date/time as well as SVN repository revision are shown within the about dialog (see attached screenshot, red box). Repository revision is updated between different builds. Date/time keep value of first build.

Steps to reproduce:

(1) Build OpenOffice from trunk

(2) Build OpenOffice from trunk again without cleaning up

Like repository revision date/time should be updated for each build.

The problem appears on Mac OS X 10.9.5 with OpenOffice 4.2 revision 1648122 from trunk, but to exists in earlier revisions as well as with other operating systems too.

If you are performing an incremental build, you need to touch these files if they are not modified before the build:

touch main/cui/source/dialogs/about.*

Ariel, many tanks for the fast reply. I propose adding an automatism like that to the standard build scripts.
