Hello Debian developers,I'm looking for 'the' timestamp of the Debian Archive, which will allow me to virtually travel through time to re-generate a specific state of Debian.
I've looked at the following places: * http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/bullseye/InRelease File timestamp: 2022-09-10 10:27 Content: Sat, 10 Sep 2022 10:18:01 UTC * https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/bookworm/InRelease File timestamp: 2022-09-18 02:14 Content: Sun, 18 Sep 2022 02:12:23 UTC * https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/InRelease File timestamp: 2022-09-18 02:14 Content: Sun, 18 Sep 2022 02:12:23 UTC * https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/Release File timestamp: 2022-09-18 02:13 Content: Sun, 18 Sep 2022 02:12:23 UTC * https://deb.debian.org/debian/project/trace/ftp-master.debian.org File timestamp: 2022-09-18 08:22 Content: Sun Sep 18 02:23:16 UTC 2022* https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20220918T030507Z/dists/sid/InRelease
URL timestamp: 2022-09-18T03:05:07Z File timestamp: 2016-05-18 23:01:23 symlinked to 2022-09-18 03:05:07 Content: Sun, 18 Sep 2022 02:12:23 UTC* https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20220918T030507Z/project/trace/ftp-master.debian.org
URL timestamp: 2022-09-18T03:05:07Z File timestamp: 2022-09-18 03:05:07 Content: Sun Sep 18 02:23:16 UTC 2022 * Did I miss another file?All of these timestamps (for sid) are close to each other, but not identical. I would guess that the earliest timestamp is the 'real' timestamp, but it is accessible (on snapshot.d.o) only with a later timestamp.
Is there a mechanism that prevents additional updates from being (partly) included while the dak synchronisation takes place?
With kind regards, Roland Clobus
