<p dir="auto">IMO that is true as long as the effected source isn't changed. And the only place we use @year@ as substitution variable is <code>src/args-std.def.in</code>. Whenever someone runs <code>./configure</code> or <code>./config.status</code>, this file is processed and the copyright year in <code>src/args-std.def</code> becomes updated. This also seems wrong to me. We should only update the year if the source code changes - a not 100% but much better approach would be to <em>only</em> take the year of the last git commit. We could generate that within bootstrap.conf which is not part of a tarball build. <a href="https://gitlab.com/nmav" data-user="105950" data-reference-type="user" data-container="body" data-placement="bottom" class="gfm gfm-project_member" title="Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos">@nmav</a> WDYT ?</p>
