Do you mention this because this is a new problem that didn't exist in
previous releases?
Since /var/log/wtmp's structure doesn't include timestamps, all times in
this file must be written in UTC. Is your system clock set in local
time instead of in UTC?
Checking recent reboots on my 14.10 system with 'utmpdump
/var/log/wtmp.1' shows correct times:
[2] [00000] [~~ ] [reboot ] [~ ] [3.16.0-16-generic ] [0.0.0.0
] [Mon Sep 22 15:00:50 2014 PDT]
[1] [00050] [~~ ] [runlevel] [~ ] [3.16.0-16-generic ] [0.0.0.0
] [Mon Sep 22 15:00:50 2014 PDT]
Confirmed against /var/log/kern.log that this is the time of the boot:
Sep 22 15:00:49 virgil kernel: [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys
cpuset
last -f /var/log/wtmp.1 shows similarly correct information:
reboot system boot 3.16.0-16-generi Mon Sep 22 15:00 - 12:32
(10+21:31)
So I can't reproduce the problem you're describing.
