Debian 64-bit time_t Transition Underway For Addressing Y2038 Problem On 32-bit Systems
Debian Experimental has begun its package rebuilds for its 64-bit time_t transition for ensuring 32-bit architectures running Debian Trixie will be able to operate past the Year 2038.
For the Year 2038 problem where the Unix time will no longer fit within a signed 32-bit integer after 19 January 2038, Debian developers are working to ensure their next release will be able to run past that point.
