Package: datefudge
Version: 1.24
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

When updating coreutils to version 9.1 in Ubuntu, we noticed that
datefudge autopkgtests started failing on armhf.

As far as I can tell, the reason is that coreutils now uses a 64-bit
time_t and functions with a "64" suffix. Datefudge however does not
expose nor implement such functions.

The error probably only appears on armhf because other Ubuntu
architectures are 64-bit.

I think the latest coreutils version in Debian should trigger the same
issue. Reproducing is fairly easy. Get and extract the corresponding deb
and run something like the following (taken from the package tests):

  a='2019-07-31 23:01:12'; datefudge -s "$a" $(pwd)/bin/date '+%F %T'

Best,

-- 
Adrien
