Package: unzip
Version: 5.52-3
Severity: normal

I did an unzip -l and saw the following date: 04-07-03. Here in France,
this would probably mean 4 July 2003. But in fact the file was modified
on 7 April 2003!

First the date output by unzip should be correct and non ambiguous:
either a format chosen by the user or a standard format.

Moreover (this part is a RFE) the user should have a way to specify
the date/time format. By default, it should probably be one of the
following:
  * the format specified by the TIME_STYLE environment variable (used
    by the coreutils) if any,
  * the ISO-8601 format,
  * the format specified by the locales.
