POSIX timestamp doesn't count leap seconds. It looks like the datetime module is not aware of the leap seconds: >>> print datetime.datetime(2006, 1, 1) - datetime.datetime(2005, 12, 31) 1 day, 0:00:00 About my method: I finally prefer datetime/datetime or datetime//datetime instead of a toseconds() method. And to convert a timestamp to a timestamp: see my patch attached to issue #2736. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1673409> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
