[issue11882] test_imaplib failed on x86 ubuntu

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti added the comment:

I tried to reproduce the issue and copied /usr/share/zoneinfo/posix/Asia/Calcutta to /etc/localtime as suggested in msg134382, but test_imaplib passes on 2.7/3.2/3.3/3.4.

I wrote a C program to test the output of mktime:
$ cat mk.c 
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

int main() {
    struct tm buf;
    char outbuf[80];
    time_t tt;
 
    buf.tm_year = 2000-1900;
    buf.tm_mon = 1;
    buf.tm_mday = 1;
    buf.tm_hour = 5;
    buf.tm_min = 30;
    buf.tm_sec = 0;
    buf.tm_wday = 5;
    buf.tm_yday = 1;
    buf.tm_isdst = 0;

    tt = mktime(&buf);
    printf("mktime: %9.1f\n", (double)tt);
    strftime(outbuf, 80, "%c", &buf);
    printf("outbuf: %s\n", outbuf);
    return 0;
}
$ gcc -Wall -Wextra -O -ansi -pedantic mk.c -o mk
$ ./mk 
mktime: 949363200.0
outbuf: Tue Feb  1 05:30:00 2000


Kasun, can you still reproduce the failure?
If so, could you try the attached C program?
