Subject: [ruby-core:50253] [ruby-trunk - Bug #7445] strptime('%s %z') doesn't work


Issue #7445 has been updated by tadf (tadayoshi funaba).

Priority changed from Normal to Low
Target version changed from 2.0.0 to Next Major

this is intentional behaviour.
%s cannot represent localtime with offset.
%s implies utc.
this is just odd as a date.

but, it's an option.
we may be able to adopt this feature on next major.
i'm not sure at the present time.
