Subject: libc6: bug in mktime()
To: submit@bugs.debian.org
X-Mailer: bug 3.1.5
Package: libc6
Version: 2.0.7pre3-1
Example program:
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
struct tm *t1, t2;
time_t time1, time2, t;
putenv("TZ=EST5EDT");
tzset();
time(&t);
t1 = localtime(&t);
t2 = *t1;
t2.tm_isdst = 1 - t2.tm_isdst;
time1 = mktime(t1);
time2 = mktime(&t2);
printf("t = %d time1 = %d time2 = %d\n", t, time1, time2);
return;
}
time2 should be time1 + 3600 seconds during daylight savings time in Eastern
time, and should be time1 - 3600 seconds during standard time.
Output using libc6 (bug present):
t = 895965466 time1 = 895965466 time2 = 895965466
Output using SunOS libc (SunOS 5.6)
t = 895965466 time1 = 895965466 time2 = 895969066
