Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 6 Private: No Submitted By: Sérgio Monteiro Basto (sergiomb) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: I think, I have found this bug on time.mktime() Initial Comment: well, I think, I have found this bug on time.mktime() for dates less than 1976-09-26 when I do stringtotime of 1976-09-25 print "timeint %d" % time.mktime(__extract_date(m) + __extract_time(m) + (0, 0, 0)) extract date = 1976 9 25 extract time = 0 0 0 timeint 212454000 and timetostring(212454000) = 1976-09-24T23:00:00Z !? To be honest the date that kept me the action was the 1-1-1970 that appears 31-12-1969. After timetostring(stringtotime(date))) I made the test and time.mktime got a bug when date is less than 1976-09-26 see: for 1976-09-27T00:00:00Z time.mktime gives 212630400 for 1976-09-26T00:00:00Z time.mktime gives 212544000 for 1976-09-25T00:00:00Z time.mktime gives 212454000 212630400 - 212544000 = 86400 (seconds) , one day correct ! but 212544000 - 212454000 = 90000 (seconds), one day more 3600 (seconds), more one hour ?!? -- Sérgio M.

Löwis (loewis) Date: 2007-02-13 05:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Originator: NO Looks like an FC6 bug to me (either in their C library, or in their Python port). On Debian 3.1, Python 2.4.1, I also get 86400.0. Please report this to Redhat; I'm closing this as "works for me". If you stil think there is a bug in Python, please point to the exact source that you think is erroneous, and the change that should be made. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sérgio Monteiro Basto (sergiomb) Date: 2007-02-12 22:37 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=4882 Originator: YES python-2.4.4-1.fc6 >>> import time >>> time.mktime((1976,9,26,0,0,0,0,0,0))-time.mktime((1976,9,25,0,0,0,0,0,0)) 90000.0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v.
