[Bug 498439] [NEW] uprecords reports >100% uptime

[Robert Sheets]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: uptimed

On one of my servers, I get the following uprecords output:

     #               Uptime | System                                     Boot up

The last two lines are the problem. I'm not sure why, but uptimed thinks
it has been down for a negative amount of time, and reports an uptime
percentage over 100%. Clearly that is wrong. Unfortunately I have no
idea why. I will happily provide whatever other information may be
helpful.

'lsb_release -rd' outputs this:
Description:    Ubuntu 9.10
Release:        9.10

'apt-cache policy uptimed' outputs this:
uptimed:
  Installed: 1:0.3.16-3
  Candidate: 1:0.3.16-3
  Version table:
 *** 1:0.3.16-3 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/universe Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
