I'm not sure to understand the problem with the dates. I'd say you
shouldn't put the date specifically in the list of packages. I would
expect "make manual-pdf" to generate the list of packages with your
script, get it included into the manual sources, and get the manual
built.

Separately, we may want to introduce something at the beginning of the
manual that says at which date the manual was built, and on which Git
version of the Buildroot sources. But I don't see a reason to make this
related to the list of packages specifically.

Best regards,

Thomas
