stat command does not show birth entry (creation time)

[Katharina]

Hello,

I have created a .txt file on desktop. In default file manager under list view (manually add "Created" to column) birth time = creation time is displayed.

But when I do with stat command it shows me this. Birth entry is not displayed, it shows an empty character -.

Change: 2021-01-21 02:24:49.608383509 +0000

Birth: -

The problem can be fixed when using coreutils 8.31 and later, because since version 8.31 stat command can display the creation time when the file system stores it. ​https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2019-03/msg00042.html
