tags 332766 + upstream thanks Hi,
(This is a follow-up to Debian bug #332766. See [1] for more details.)

Well, since '-' marks the beginning of an option, you'd need to separate options and timestamp/value-list tuples using '--' in this case. However, as of version 1.3.5, this does not work either: $ rrdtool update file.rrd -t ds -- -5:42 && date ERROR: file.rrd: illegal attempt to update using time -5 when last update time is 1239115940 (minimum one second step) 1239116951 Apparently, this feature got lost somewhere on the way. With this message, I've forwarded the bug the upstream developers mailing list, hoping for a comment.
