I've found this message in the bug-coreutils list. It turns out that date is parsing the + 1 as offset from UTC. This can be seen if I use different numbers in my date invocation:
Notice how the minute field stays at 01 rather than being incremented (decremented) by the value I specified.
Now, counter-intuitively, I can place the + 1 minute anywhere in the date definition, so
works as I wanted it to.
So, it is a (known) bug; it is not the bug I thought it was.
Time to mark as solved.

Should work in any shell, but requires GNU date, although GNU date seems only to be happy for input dates between 1902 and 2037, inclusive (49673 days).
Assume $a and $b hold two dates, e.g.
set a=2010-03-27
set b=2010-04-04
Marginally faster:

Dear all,
This should be simple but I cannot figure it out despite reading all the man pages. Could someone please help me translate this code (GNU date) to one that can be read by BSD date?:
myDate=$(date -d "$h -$l days" +%Y/%m/%d),
where h is a variable of the form DD/MM/YYYY, and l is... (3 Replies)
It's easy as pie to get the date minus one day on opensolaris:
date -d "-1 day" +"%Y%m%d"run this command on our crappy Solaris 10 machines however (which I'm guessing doesn't have GNU date running on it) and you get:
date: illegal option -- d

Why is the result of this command off (or less) by one hour
date --date "1979-10-26 +54 hours" +%Y%m%d%H
The result is
1979102805
It actually should be
1979102806
It does it with adding minutes as well and only occurs on Oct. 26, from what I can tell. What's going on here? (9 Replies)
