Alexandre: 'now' shouldn't need to be fixed, because date will get the system time and convert it to the proper date. The problem comes with 'stamp' using 'date -r' on a file on the system, which could conceivably have the wrong date. Please correct me if I missed something.
As for coreutils, upstream (ie, not me or Ubuntu) has decided that the time in question and other dates such as 'Feb 30' are wrong because they don't exist and choose to express that as an error condition. As such, we need to adjust our tools/scripts to account for this. -- date returns "invalid date" for some timezone's DST https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/354793 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
