Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Core (C code) Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Christian Franke (chrfranke) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: time.altzone does not include DST offset on Cygwin Initial Comment: On Cygwin (python-2.4.1-1) time.altzone is always set equal to time.timezone. Steps to reproduce: $ python -c 'import time; time.tzset(); \ print time.ctime(), time.daylight, \ time.timezone, time.altzone' Actual result (for CEST): Sun May 14 13:46:55 2006 1 -3600 -3600 Expected result: Sun May 14 13:46:55 2006 1 -3600 -7200 This causes failure of time conversions in e.g. rdiff-backup-1.1.5 The attached patch should fix this for most timezones. The function already uses the same heuristics in the (!__CYGWIN__ && !HAVE_STRUCT_TM_TM_ZONE) case. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1490224&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
