| I also note a minor bug/issue with printf in Bash 5.3-alpha: the builtin
| printf treats TZ=CET-1CEST,M3.5,M10.5/3 as if it were oddly-named UTC.
That's user error, POSIX format requires 3 values after the M:
Mm.n.d The d'th day (0 d 6) of week n of month m of the
year (1 n 5, 1 m 12, where week 5 means ``the last
d day in month m'' which may occur in either the fourth
or the fifth week). Week 1 is the first week in which the
d'th day occurs. Day zero is Sunday.
If you do:
TZ=CET-1CEST,M3.1.5,M10.1.5/3 date
Fri Jun 14 00:49:42 CEST 2024
(note I have no idea if the rule I use is factually correct, it is however
syntactically correct)
