Package: libdate-manip-perl
Version: 6.07-1
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream squeeze sid


I really don't thing we should release with this bug. It may break whatever 
software uses Date::Manip in an unpredictable way.


The following simple scripts fails:

=================================================
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use Date::Manip;

Date_Init(
    "DateFormat=non-US",
    'WorkDayBeg=09:00',
    'WorkDayEnd=17:30',
);

my $err;
my $d = DateCalc( '15.04.2010 17:12', '+ 2 days', \$err, 2 );

print "($err)\n" if $err;

print $d ? UnixDate($d, '%d.%m.%Y %T') : "Calculation failed\n";
=================================================

Expected output is '19.04.2010 17:12'.


I am trying to produce a patch. Help is welcome.
