Description Alain Wenmaekers 2000-10-30 19:01:09 UTC
I installed a redhat system with the respin-7.0 disks.

I choose (in the text install) Europe/Brussels(+1) as timezone. "clock set 
to GMT" is not selected.
After the installation, linuxconf complains about configuration files 
having a revision date in the future (like printcap, crontab,...), 
prompting me about each error when I'm configuring someting...After some 
time (few hours I think) the problem stops.

The problem is not that bad...but it is extremely annoying. 
Also, the bug is there at least since RH 5.1.
I also reported this bug for RH 6.2, but although it was promised to 
be "fixed in the next release", it is still there.
