I have the same problem on gutsy (coreutils 5.97-5.3ubuntu). A workaround is to specify as a first operation "0 min" (so without a + or - sign, as Tino suggests) and then the actual operation. e.g. :
date -d "2007-03-23 21:01 0 min -10 min" At least for me, it works. -- Calculations by "date" are wrong https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/51106 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
