[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#998355: Acknowledgement (samba: Access Time of File is set to the far future: 30828-09-14 04:48:05.477580700 +0200)

[Georg Gast]

I tried to build old samba version from https://git.samba.org/samba.

Version samba-4.11.17. No problem about the time. All like it was on 
buster. The build of version prior 4.11 failed because of some python 
issues.

As i first tried this on a fast build machine (vm) i got the date 
2446-05-11 00:38:55.000000000 +0200 repeatedly. As i compiled it on the 
real machine i am using, i got the 30828-09-14 04:48:05.477580700 +0200 
again.

My guess is, that is about some initialization issue but i am not sure. 
I try to do a git bisect, but i am not yet done as the build on the 
target is so slow.
