Dropbox installer sets pkg metadata to date of January 1, 1980 on install #74

Hey there! Thank you for creating a meta installer for both architectures for Dropbox!!!

I'm testing deployments of the pkg that is created with this recipe and noticed that the App shows a last modified date of Jan 1, 1980. Digging into the pkg I also see that date on the Info.plist and PkgInfo are also Jan 1, 1980.

Based some digging this appears to be a Dropbox issue and not necessarily an autopkg/recipe issue, but I wanted to raise it here so you and others might be aware and hopefully Dropbox fixes it?

Yeah, I don't know any reason why this would be caused by anything in my recipes, but thanks for the FYI.
