--- Begin Message ---Package: libtimedate-perl Version: 1.08-4 Severity: normal Date::Parse always parses aa/bb/cc as mm/dd/yy, even when the locale is set (in Europe aa/bb/cc is interpreted as dd/mm/yy usually). Example: $ echo $LANG; perl -MDate::Parse -e \ "print scalar(localtime(str2time('1/4/00'))),\"\n\";" en_GB Tue Jan 4 00:00:00 2000 I believe the locale (LC_TIME?) should provide enough information for Date::Parse to figure this out :-) -- System Information Debian Release: 2.2 Kernel Version: Linux lamia 2.3.99-pre3+ikd #20 Sun Mar 26 21:23:07 BST 2000 i686 unknown Versions of the packages libtimedate-perl depends on: ii perl-5.005 5.005.03-6 Larry Wall's Practical Extracting and Report ^^^ (Provides virtual package perl5)
