Indeed, finding the minute posed no difficulty.

The problem I had:

00:00:00   <--- I wanted this
00:00:04   <--- Starting from this
00:59:59
00:00:00   <--- I was getting this.

Switching from

    $dt->truncate( to => 'minute' )

to

    $dt->substract( seconds => $dt->second )

solved that problem.
