So from what I investigated, the program fails on this part of the code
I am not sure of what I say, but it looks like our implementation only supports
date [OPTION]... [+FORMAT]
and not
date [-u|--utc|--universal] [MMDDhhmm[[CC]YY][.ss]]
because the reason the program fails is that there is no +
at the start of our 11111111
string.
So we'd need to fix that.
I also note that the +%
format fails on coreutils, while it only prints a % in GNU.
I'm working on a date format fix here: https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/6667/
The coreutils version currently uses the
parse_datetime
crate to parse the date source which parses inYYYYMMDDHHMM
and similar formats. However it is not compliant withdate
:GNU:
coreutils
Since it is interpreting the first
1111
as the year.Note:
date -s STRING
is compliant with GNU the version, only the positional argument format is affected.
