Package: dateutils
Version: 0.3.1-1.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The input format "%y" does not work as per the documentation. Only "%Y" works:

andrewg@xen:~$ dateutils.ddiff -i "%y%m%d%H%M%S" -f "%S" now 20150407075744
ddiff: cannot make sense of `20150407075744' using the given input formats
andrewg@xen:~$ dateutils.ddiff -i "%Y%m%d%H%M%S" -f "%S" now 20150407075744
-5393469


Also, the output format "%d" doesn't work when used by itself (but does work in
combination with other format specifiers, strangely):

andrewg@xen:~$ dateutils.ddiff -i "%Y%m%d%H%M%S" -f "%d %S" 20150407075744 now
62 36520
andrewg@xen:~$ dateutils.ddiff -i "%Y%m%d%H%M%S" -f "%d" 20150407075744 now
0
andrewg@xen:~$ dateutils.ddiff -i "%Y%m%d%H%M%S" -f "%S" 20150407075744 now
