It looks like the period is into the future?

Not if you're on GMT.

The original problem looks like an issue with Solaris' strftime()
function (or presuming that what's good enough for linux is good enough
for Solaris.)

Try using my version of sa-stats.pl at
http://www.cynistar.net/~apthorpe/code/sa-contrib/sa-stats.pl

It has some additional code that's not in the SA distribution and
doesn't use "%F" with strftime(), possibly to solve this very problem.

I thought I submitted one (I'm not whining, honest...)

Ha! Found it:

http://bugzilla.spamassassin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2988

I may well be misunderstanding the patch submission process which could
explain why this has slipped through the cracks.

I seem to be having a problem when running the script. I am getting the
following error:

Error in option spec: "top|T:25"
Error in option spec: "SCALAR(0x851337c)"

Any idea what is causing that? I made sure I installed both DateManip and
Parse-Syslog.

What do you get when you run:

perl -MGetopt::Long -e 'print $Getopt::Long::VERSION, "\n";'

?

You might need to upgrade Getopt::Long.

Got the same error on RH7.3 box. Edit sa-stats.pl and comment out the
line that contains "top|T:25". Then it will work but you loose the
topusers stats.

So you may simply remote the ":25" string from the same line and live
with no 25-topusers default.

An upgrade would help, but not on a production ENV! :-)

I don't have an answer, but related questions: Which package
contains DateManip on a Debian system?

Doesn't seem to be there, not even on backports.org or apt-get.org.
Unfortunately, apart from alien, I don't know of an easy way to build
native .debs from a CPAN .tar.gz, though there are at least two to
build RPMs. Enlightenment would be welcome here too - perhaps off-list
since it's way OT !

FWIW, Date::Manip is pure perl so I imagine building a .deb shouldn't be
too difficult. I haven't used a Debian system in over 2 years[1] so I
can't help with packaging (sorry.)

[1] The package management system hurt my brain, otherwise the
distribution seemed fairly sane. I suppose I should give it another try.

dh-make-perl

I had to do this to be able to copy the Bayes db files from a current
RedHat install to a new Debian server. Unfortunately, the Debian
packaging of the "core" Perl modules meant that I had to force dpkg to
overwrite files relating to DB_File. :(

Erm... :-) Why bother with back-ports, given that there's an
implementation of Date::Manip as part of woody?

(apt-cache search --names-only 'lib.*date.*manip.*-perl')

Thanks to everyone who enlightened me gently, I _am_ actually waiting
for new glasses (but can't blame them in this case :-)).
