Upstream has reported that the workround for the problem is a new option ("-
ai") which was introduced in 2.4.3 (although he also reports that 2.4.4 should
be used due to a bug in 2.4.3).
Could the version with the "-ai" option be brought into Testing? Without this
option, anyone who sees the situation of a file's mtime going backwards cannot
get their dar archive inserted into dar_manager at all. Previous releases
worked because they did not report this so-called error so this is a definite
regression. If we cannot go to 2.4.4 for the next Debian release then a small
patch just to disable the error message may be the answer.
Discussion on the problem itself continues upstream. My personal view is
that the -ai option should be the default (or the message removed altogether
as I believe it causes more problems than it fixes).
