It looks like it does not like the leading spaces for the input date. The date is taken from 'dumpe2fs -h' ouptput, and some clean-up on it happens, but it looks like it is not enough for BusyBox' date command, at least for the version in focal. Backporting this to focal is needed. [Impact] The system date shown on first boot is incorrect, which can be problematic on first boot if at that point in time there is no network connection. If fixrtc works correctly at least we get the date of the last time the rootfs was mounted, which is modern enough to avoid problems with snap assertions validation, etc. [Test case] Boot an image with fixrtc in the kernel command line in a system with no network. snap seeding will fail without the patch. [Regression Potential] Quite small, as the fix is small and targeted.
