You have been subscribed to a public bug:
I'm using Linux Mint 17.
perl -version reports:
This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 2 (v5.18.2) built for
i686-linux-gnu-thread-multi-64int
dpkg-query -l perl:
ii perl 5.18.2-2ubuntu1
i386 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction and Report
Language
dpkg-query -l libtime-format-perl:
ii libtime-format-perl 1.11-1
all module for easy date/time formatting
You can duplicate the problem by running:
perl -e 'use Time::Format qw(%time %strftime); print
$time{"yyyymmdd.hhmmss.mmm"}'
which will produce something like:
20150117.160824.-617
I found this perlmonks link from 2009 which addresses the bug:
http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=750652
Which references this bug report:
https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=44167
And that bug report says it is fixed in version 1.12
For the record, the patch does seem to fix the bug (for me). But March
of 2009 was a *long* time ago (almost 6 years) -- is this bug going to
be patched for the 1.11 version, or are there any plans to update to
1.12?
