Thank you for opening this bug and helping make Ubuntu better. This is not a bug in date: ' date +%X' will return the time as required by the *current locale*, not necessarily in 24-hour format. Use 'date +%T' to have the time returned in 24-hour, independently of the locale.
Please see "info coreutils 'date invocation'" for full details. As such, closing as INVALID. ** Changed in: coreutils (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- date command formatting broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574423 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
