Bug Description

I have a wrapper that parses the output of `duplicity collection-status` to make decisions about running a full or an incremental backup.

Today it failed.

I was assuming that the day of the month is always two digits, so I was counting for:

Fri Oct 01 00:00:05 2010

but I've got

Fri Oct 1 00:00:05 2010

I'm using duplicity 0.6.10

It would be nice to make the date format consistent, unless there's a strong reason against it.

Actually, it would be nice to have a parseable "collection-status" output.

I'll allow a programmatic interface with "duplicity collection-status" the unix way :)

Cheers,
Geoff
