this rather esoteric. have test tests string of formatted timestamp, it's bugging me.
date
's man page indicates that
%p locale's equivalent of either or pm; blank if not known %p %p, lower case
however, on fedora 20:
$ date mon 27 oct 22:44:22 aedt 2014 $ date '+%p %p' pm pm $ tz=europe/madrid date '+%p %p' pm pm
the %p
not uppercase should be.
on ubuntu 14.04 behaviour correct:
$ date mon oct 27 12:20:08 cet 2014 $ date '+%p %p' pm pm $ tz=australia/melbourne date '+%p %p' pm pm
they both have same version (8.21). suggestions on next?
my colleagues managed track downwards language setting:
$ lang=en_au.utf-8 date '+%p %p' am $ lang=en_gb.utf-8 date '+%p %p' am
now figure out file bug report...
