The times I've seen something weird like this were due to the system's clock being something totally unreasonable. Check to see what the current time is on the system and if it's wrong manually set it to something realistic and try the build again. If that's not it let us know. -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@cse.buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel |
