I only remember the previous one, which was only "half" a false
positive. In the sense that it was a temporary stop in the Debian
archive updates ("upstream" to us), that resulted in more than 24h
between 2 Debsources update.

The proper fix for such a situation would actually be, instead of
measuring the difference between now() and the last Debsources update,
measuring the difference between the last Debian archive update and the
last Debsources update.

Not sure about the other case you remember though,
Cheers.
