>Description:
User groups rely on calendar meeting dates such as
1st Tuesday, 3rd Wednesday, Last Sunday each month.
That broke in 8.2-RELEASE & 8-stable & current
>How-To-Repeat:
date # Tue Nov 1 .......
echo > ~/tmp/calendar_test_data << EOF
/* caution tabs in here so do not mouse copy */
Tuesday+1 first Tuesday in month
Wednesday Midweek
Thursday-1 last Thursday in month
EOF
7.4 & 8.1-RELEASE: calendar -f ~/tmp/calendar_test_data
Nov 1* first Tuesday in month
Nov 2* Midweek
8.2-RELEASE & 8-stable & current
Unprocessed:
-------
date: |Tuesday+1|
