Subject: Dates set to Dec 31 1969
Date: Sat, 27 Sep 2014 08:09:13 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140927130912.GK4704@n0nb.us> (raw)
As much as I'd like to be six years old again in some aspects, I'm
curious why most of the dates under /gnu/store and under ~/.guix-profile
are set to Dec 31 1969? Yes, I know that this is just before the
beginning of the Unix epoch, which must figure into the equation in some
way.
If this is in the FM, I apologize for the noise as I haven't completed
the manual yet.
- Nate
