Florent Xicluna <florent.xicl...@gmail.com> added the comment: There's many discrepancies between OS X and Linux about time formatting...
OS X >>> from datetime import datetime >>> datetime(1900, 1, 1).strftime("%6Y") '6Y' Linux >>> from datetime import datetime >>> datetime(1900, 1, 1).strftime("%6Y") '001900' BTW, these discrepancies are already mentioned: http://docs.python.org/dev/library/datetime.html#strftime-strptime-behavior “The full set of format codes supported varies across platforms, because Python calls the platform C library’s strftime() function, and platform variations are common.” We should had an asterisk to the "%Y" saying that the padding is not consistent across platforms. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13305> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
