Package: coreutils
Version: 8.23-4
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I'm just upgrading my server from debian 7 (wheezy) to debian 8 (jessie) and
several of my scripts are not working anymore. After some tests, it turns out
that the problem likely comes from the fact the 'date' function does not work
as expected.
In wheezy, the command line
> date /bin/date +"%Y%m%d.%p"
would have returned
> 20150512.PM
In jessie, the same command line returns
> 20150512.
omitting PM.
As a consequence of this omission, my scripts are crashing.
Have you got any idea why this is happening?
Best regards,
Sebastien Legrand
