Summary: util/datetime tmtuple invalid argument

Initial Comment:
Hi, I installed from CVS and found the following bug.  I'm 
running on Windows XP Pro with Python 2.2.3.

the "util/datetime.py" module defines tmtuple and 
passes an incorrect parameter to time.gmtime()

It is defined as 

return time.gmtime(tmsecs or time.time())

I tested and found that it should be

return time.gmtime(tmsecs + time.time())

Thanks,
Scott

Try that fix (still dirty, but should work) and tell me, if
it works ok.

OK,  I put my code back to what came from CVS and 
attempted to edit the FrontPage of my wiki.  

It didn't fail as an anonymous user, or after I logged in.  I 
then changed my Date Format preference from "m/d/y" back 
to default and got the error traceback  as posted.

BTW, thanks for the quick responses.
Scott

Actually, I would have to agree completely.  

(I'm not a python programmer, and had to try a few more 
things before getting it to solve the problems exhibited.

My first fix caused an error in the PageEditor, so with a little 
more digging, I came up with this.

  if tmsecs is not None:
        return time.gmtime(tmsecs + time.time())
    else:
        return time.gmtime(time.time())

What do you think of that fix?  (probably not good Python, 
but it did solve the problem that I experienced.

Thanks, Scott

Your "fix" is definitely incorrect.

It would help fixing the bug if you please post
the error msg you got from python, including traceback.
