Description Marko Myllynen 2013-09-02 10:50:44 UTC
Description of problem:
sosreport resets the timestamp of the collected files. This was fixed in bug 219674 years ago but now running sosreport from sos-2.2-38.el6.noarch shows all files/dirs having the timestamp of the sos report generation time.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sos-2.2-38.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sosreport
2. tar xf $generated_report
3. ls -la $report_path/var/log
