Bonjour,
* Pour linux (noyau) pas de problème (du moins jusqu'en 2038)
Voir => http://www.linux.org.uk/mbug.html (Linux and Year 2000)

Does the Linux OS suffer from the Year 2000 bug ?
The Linux operating system and libraries like all Unix and Unixlike
platforms does not store the data in a simplistic field by field fashion
but stores it as an incremental count of seconds since the beginning of
1970. The current size of that counter is good until 2038. By then we will
be using 64 bit counters which are good until the probable end of the
universe.

* Pour les applications gnu, il y a des mises à jour (notamment Apache) :

The obsolete version 4 of the Linux C library has some situations in which
the year 2000 is displayed as "100". All modern library versions (5.3.12,
5.4.38, glibc 2.x) behave correctly when tested.
Commonly shipped components known to have problems are:
Program Version Safe Version
Apache 1.1.x 1.2.x
CVS <=1.9> 1.10
date GNU date (sh utils 1.1.6)
TCL/TK 7.x, see link 8.x
wu.ftpd 2.4 beta 2.4 beta 15+
logrotate RedHat 4.1 RedHat 5.0
Pine Pine <4.0 Pine 4.0+
Minicom Minicom <= 1.81 1.82

with GNU software) pour une liste plus détaillé.
Voila, bonne journée et à bientot.
