Bug#220006: Mktime, -1and PHP
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2-9
Severity: normal
Tags: Sarge
The problem is that in libc6 2.3.1-16, mktime always returns -1 for
dates that are before 1970.
>I ran into this problem because I assigned a Python programming time
>zone problem to my students
><http://www.cs.ucla.edu/classes/spring03/cs131/hw/pr2.html>. Students
>who were running Debian testing could not do the assignment because
>their programs mishandled dates before 1970. Students who were
>running Debian stable (3.0r1) worked fine, as did students running
>Solaris. So this is a regression from 3.0r1.
Hi!
Is this problem still accurate? We have the same problem with PHP4 under
Sarge (uptodate 10/11/03).
