The timestamp it should be referring to is the one here:

https://ftp-master.debian.org/i18n/

That's the file that the DDTP downloads and uses to generate the files to

somewhere along the way? Probably means it's also checking the wrong place
for other file too.

This proposal about changing the messages still holds some merit btw =)
