Comment 1 Kamil Dudka 2016-08-26 06:46:05 UTC
Please attach the output of 'date' on the system in question.  I suspect this is shown because date/time is not set properly.  The info documentation for ls says:

    By default, file timestamps are listed in abbreviated form, using a date
    like ‘Mar 30  2002’ for non-recent timestamps, and a date-without-year
    and time like ‘Mar 30 23:45’ for recent timestamps.  This format can
    change depending on the current locale as detailed below.
