Subject: [PATCH 22/24] libxt_time: always ignore libc timezone
Date: Wed, 25 May 2011 01:08:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1306278506-11463-23-git-send-email-jengelh@medozas.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1306278506-11463-1-git-send-email-jengelh@medozas.de>

Since xt_time is meant to work across many months, libc doing
automatic conversion from local time to UTC (during parse) is
unwanted, especially when --utc is specified. The same goes for
dumping.
