>Description:
This "bug" appears in the FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE version of July 2007 too and in all
FreeBSD versions that I can find.
The /usr/bin/calendar program reports Pablo Picasso's birthday as October 5, but
his birthday is actually October 25:
>How-To-Repeat:
/usr/bin/calendar -t05.10
>Fix:
The contents of the /usr/share/calendar/calendar.birthday file need to be changed:
Change the line:
10/05 Pablo Picasso born in Malaga, Spain, 1881
to:
10/25 Pablo Picasso born in Malaga, Spain, 1881
Test by issuing the calendar commands
>Release-Note:
>Audit-Trail:
>Unformatted:
>/usr/bin/calendar -t05.10
Oct 5 Pablo Picasso born in Malaga, Spain, 1881
Should be:
>/usr/bin/calendar -t25.10
Oct 25 Pablo Picasso born in Malaga, Spain, 1881
>/usr/bin/calendar -t05.10
should not show Picasso, but testing for Oct 25 should
>/usr/bin/calendar -t25.10
Oct 25 Pablo Picasso born in Malaga, Spain, 1881
