Package: libdatetime-astro-sunrise-perl
Version: 0.01.01-3
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
If I use
$sunrise = DateTime::Astro::Sunrise->new( $long, $lat, -0.583, 0);
($rise, $set) = $sunrise->sunrise($dt);
where lat/long are in Australia and date is about now (19th Nov 2012)
the method sunrise fails
The 'minute' parameter ("-59") to DateTime::new did not pass the 'an integer
between 0 and 59' callback
at /usr/lib/perl5/DateTime.pm line 199
DateTime::new(undef, 'year', 2012, 'month', 11, 'day', 19, 'hour', 20,
...) called at /usr/share/perl5/DateTime/Astro/Sunrise.pm line 129
This is because sunrise is on the day before sunset in UTC and sunrise
uses negative numbers as arguments to datetime->new for hour and
minute.
The fix seems to be to use the math capability of DateTime to set the hour and
minute:
my $rise_time = DateTime->new(
year => $dt->year,
month => $dt->month,
day => $dt->day,
hour => 0,
minute => 0,
time_zone => 'UTC')->add(hours=>$hour_rise,
minutes => $min_rise);
in the 4 places where the times are initialized.
Patch attached but all I can say is 'it works for me'. I've tested it in any
generalised way.
