Hi,

I recently installed rpm2pkg-1.3 and whenever that program runs it resets
the date & time on my computer. I first ran across this while trying to
install netscape7, and again today when I tried to install blender (my
pkgsrc is from Jan 14,2003).

The computer is a Dell Dimension 8200 (P4,2.53Ghz). Has anyone else seen
this problem (either with a Dell or another system)?

I some information each time this happened in the windows I was using, and
that is attached below...
