How did you enable that plugin? You may need to learn more about it.

This looks suspicious. I hear about it regularly, but I still haven't
spent time on looking into this plugin. Somebody may want to verify that
it works correctly.

system-config-date 1.9.36-1.fc10 can be found in updates since early March.

Doubtful for a set of packages, which has been published via a single
ticket in the Fedora Updates System. A mirror would either know about all
updates from the set or none, i.e. it either carries fresh metadata or
old metadata.
