The file was not recovered.) It looks to me that /etc/setup/timestamp is updated by the last successful setup (upgrade?) run, and contains a copy of the selected mirror's setup.ini setup_timestamp field as of the last successful setup (upgrade?) run, a few hours earlier than the last successful setup (upgrade?) run. -- Take care.
