An alternative would be to use the faketime[0] tool to wrap your dch calls.
That's it ! I wondered if something like that existed. Thanks ! I also found out that dch could invoke date -d "@<1970-timestamp>".
That does look useful, but if there aren't any side effects to setting LC_TIME, I'd prefer that over adding a dependency. It's still simple enough code.
Can be. I would personally prefer using the package, "%a, %d %b %Y %T %z" isn't really meaningful, but you are the people who care for the script, so I let you decide. Feel free, I will make my program work with faketime if you reject 0002.
As you told Julian Gilbey and as far as I know, the three variants that exist get us to the same result. If setting LC_TIME affected something else than the call to strftime I'm messing with, There would probably be a mistake in the first place, since these tools shouldn't produce locale-dependent output, except for the timezone. Is this reasoning right ?
