Package: taskwarrior
Version: 2.4.1+dfsg-3
Severity: normal
Starting with taskwarrior 2.4, the filter "due.before" doesn't seem to work
correctly with relative dates anymore.
$ task add due:7d test
Created task 1.
$ task list due.before:7d
No matches.
$ task list
ID Age D Due Description Urg
1 2s 2015-03-26 test 8.75
Using an absolute specifier instead works:
$ task list due.before:26th
ID Age D Due Description Urg
1 5s 2015-03-26 test 8.75
This looks like a regression.

Hi,
a long time ago you opened this bug against the taskwarrior Debian
package:
* Yuri D'Elia <[email protected]> [2015-03-18 21:32]:
Package: taskwarrior
Version: 2.4.1+dfsg-3
Severity: normal
Starting with taskwarrior 2.4, the filter "due.before" doesn't seem to work
correctly with relative dates anymore.
$ task add due:7d test
Created task 1.
$ task list due.before:7d
No matches.
$ task list
ID Age D Due Description Urg
1 2s 2015-03-26 test 8.75
Using an absolute specifier instead works:
$ task list due.before:26th
ID Age D Due Description Urg
1 5s 2015-03-26 test 8.75
This looks like a regression.
This was tracked upstream at:
https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskwarrior/issues/1620
and was marked closed with the workaround:
$ task list due.before:now+7d
Closing this bug accordingly.
Cheers Jochen
