From the rpm 4.11alpha announcement: "There's one thing that does affect nearly every package: new warnings about bogus spec changelog dates. The most common cause is the day name not matching the given date, such as: warning: bogus date in %changelog: Tue Jun 03 2009 Panu Matilainen <pmatilai@xxxxxxxxxx> - 4.7.0-5 Jun 03 2009 was Wednesday, not Tuesday, hence the warning. As rpm hasn't hasn't previously validated changelog dates make sense as a whole, nearly every spec has one or more of these mistakes. It's just a warning though and doesn't cause build failures." kevin
