Package: libc6
Version: 2.10.2-6
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n
To see the bug, please compile and run the following small program:
- ---
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <locale.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char time[255];
struct tm *tm;
setlocale(LC_ALL, "de_DE");
tm = localtime(NULL);
strftime(time, sizeof(time), "%c", tm);
fprintf(stdout, "%s\n", time);
} // int main(int argc, char **argv...
- ---
The problem only happens with locale set (to de_DE, no other tested).
And only %c is broken.
- From the man page: "%c The preferred date and time representation
for the current locale."

This is wrong. localtime() doesn't accept a NULL pointer. You should
call time(NULL), and pass the result to localtime().
