Fwd: Possible Bug in DateTime
Hi,
Got this a month ago but had no time to take care of it myself. Can
one of you look at it? :-)
Cheers,
Jonathan

Hello Jonathan,
I hope it is OK for you to inform you this way regarding a possible bug
in DateTime (I have not verified if newer versions already have fixed this).
I am using libdatetime-perl as a debian Package under Debian/Lenny
(32-bit) and also Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
Latest changelog:
libdatetime-perl (2:0.5200-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
* Test-Pod and Test-Pod-Coverage are now moved to xt/
* Refresh copyright and control files
* Removed RELEASE_TESTING override, no longer needed

the Bug:
DateTime->now->month does not show the actual month shortly after a
month has changed, still returns the former one, please notice the
following example:
# ==============
#!/usr/bin/perl
# script name: testdate.pl
use DateTime;
my $date = DateTime->now;
printf "Date: %s-%s\n",$date->year, $date->month;
# ==============
..going to Bash:
#> date
Di 6. Sep 00:09:18 CEST 2011
The script delivers correctly:
Date: 2011-9
#> date
Do 1. Sep 00:09:15 CEST 2011
The script delivers wrongly:
Date: 2011-8
Like DateTime->month_0 would do.
This behavior can also be reproduced under Debian/Lenny, 32bit, DateTime
0.42
Best regards from Cologne, Germany,
Ulf
