Operating Systems Linux Bug in date command? Post 302841349 by hsemune on Wednesday 7th of August 2013 09:47:13 AM

Hi Alister,

Adding daylight savings time or any other time zones does not correct this issue. I still see the hour result being incremented by -1 or 1, whether it's in March, October, July, February, November. I'm still befuddled by this...

Thanks!

I wrote an if statement adding or subtracting an hour when I encounter this, so the problem is solved for me. But it's less than ideal that I have to write additional code to work around an important and widely used script function.
