[Bug 2122359] [NEW] date: invalid date 'now - X seconds'

[Dan Bungert]

Public bug reported:

run-parts is failing on 98-fsck-at-reboot, presumably due to rust-
coreutils not supporting the arguments to `date`.

this failure can be seen in the motd:

date: invalid date 'now - X seconds'
run-parts: /etc/update-motd.d/98-fsck-at-reboot exited with return code 1

where X is a floating point number.
