The date utility seems to erroneously add timezone-shifting when using ISO-8601 dates. This example is fine (see the date roundtrip to back where it started): =E2=9C=88saturn:~$ date +%s -d "2006-12-31 22:00" 1167595200 =E2=9C=88saturn:~$ date -d @1167595200 Sun Dec 31 22:00:00 IST 2006 However, adding a "t" between the date and hour (as per ISO 8601) breaks the roundtrip (the timestamp is wrong): =E2=9C=88saturn:~$ date +%s -d "2006-12-31t22:00" 1167577200 =E2=9C=88saturn:~$ date -d @1167577200 Sun Dec 31 17:00:00 IST 2006 This is on a love-to-hate Debian-based distro, with GNU coreutils 8.5. I can confirm the issue on CentOS with date 5.97. Without the "t" the timestamp is correct: [root@gs beer]# date +%s -d "2006-12-31 22:00" 1167602400 [root@gs beer]# date -d @1167602400 Sun Dec 31 22:00:00 UTC 2006 And with it, the timestamp is wrong. [root@gs beer]# date +%s -d "2006-12-31t22:00" 1167577200 [root@gs beer]# date -d @1167577200 Sun Dec 31 15:00:00 UTC 2006 Note that IST (from the first server) is UTC+2. --=20 Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Mon Jan 09 01:49:45 2012 Received: (at 10455) by debbugs.gnu.org; 9 Jan 2012 06:49:45 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:50582 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.72) (envelope-from ) id 1Rk93A-0005sK-AM for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Mon, 09 Jan 2012 01:49:44 -0500 Received: from joseki.proulx.com ([216.17.153.58]:35006) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.72) (envelope-from ) id 1Rk937-0005sA-2l for 10455@debbugs.gnu.org; Mon, 09 Jan 2012 01:49:42 -0500 Received: from discord.proulx.com (discord.proulx.com [172.27.61.2]) (Authenticated sender: discord) by joseki.proulx.com (Postfix) with ESMTPA id D58A7211D1; Sun, 8 Jan 2012 23:49:27 -0700 (MST) Received: by discord.proulx.com (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 5AEF7D38675; Sun, 8 Jan 2012 23:49:27 -0700 (MST) Date: Sun, 8 Jan 2012 23:49:27 -0700 From: Bob Proulx To: Dotan Cohen Subject: Re: bug#10455: Date: Possible bug in ISO-8601 formatted dates Message-ID: <20120109064927.GA22171@discord.proulx.com> References: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.18 (2008-05-17) X-Spam-Score: -1.9 (-) X-Debbugs-Envelope-To: 10455 Cc: 10455@debbugs.gnu.org X-BeenThere: debbugs-submit@debbugs.gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.13 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Errors-To: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org X-Spam-Score: -1.9 (-) Dotan Cohen wrote: > It seems that ISO-8601 formated dates are not properly handled by the > date utility. GNU date didn't learn how to handle ISO-8601 until very recently. Your version 8.5 doesn't have that code yet. Here is the NEWS file entry for the change as it went into the recent 8.13 release. * Noteworthy changes in release 8.13 (2011-09-08) [stable] ** New features date now accepts ISO 8601 date-time strings with "T" as the separator. It has long parsed dates like "2004-02-29 16:21:42" with a space between the date and time strings. Now it also parses "2004-02-29T16:21:42" and fractional-second and time-zone-annotated variants like "2004-02-29T16:21:42.333-07:00" And here is the ChangeLog entry: date: support parsing of ISO-8601-with-"T" dates Thanks to an improvement in gnulib's parse-datetime module, commands like this now succeed (output manually indented): $ ./date -u -d 2004-02-29T16:21:42.33+07:00 +%FT%T.%N%z 2004-02-29T09:21:42.330000000+0000 * tests/misc/date: Add a test to exercise the new-in-gnulib parsing of ISO8601-with-"T" dates. * NEWS (New features): Mention it. * gnulib: Update, to pull in this parse-datetime improvement.

I checked with the backported date-8.13 and it performs as expected for the test case mentioned. That is, the issue is resolved. I love to love Debian! I was just embarrassed to mention that I use Kubuntu at home on a public mailing list. Here, I'm getting over it! Hence, a love-to-hate Debian-based distro! The backported date ran fine on Kubuntu.
