Long answer....
I had this happen to me before also, it did it cause they script or
program (or something in the compile) had a time stamp and was spitting
back the error because the date on the workstation was before that date.
Basically it thought that the programs in question where programed n years
and/or n hours in the furture, techinally that isn't a possiable for
workstations to time travel and download src off a ftp of the furture.
So something else had to be wrong, I checked my date and set it to the
correct time and it stoped giving me those errors. The sad thing is it
took me 2 1/2 hours to set the correct date, ouch. man date , man
Short answer...
fix the date on the computer.
Linux will become THE os, think about it, we have to have an ice age
sometime, right? Pengiuns love ice.
