Hi Jean-Marc,

Was this a one off problem or something you can consistently reproduce?

Also, you've selected "backports" as the component, I assume this should be "RPM packages" instead.

After a new install (Sept 13) and a full update the problem is gone so it seems to be solved.

Best regards

Maybe you didn't have timezone installed?
Though it should not be possible.
Anyway I've added a fix in git

I believe everything was installed and configured with timezone : Paris and ntp server : Europe|France: fr.pool.ntp.org. Now it's working perfectly.
