Description daryl herzmann 2013-08-22 21:33:25 UTC
The version of pytz distributed with RHEL6.4 is rather old in the tooth and missing many zoneinfo files that would make it useful.  Is there a consideration to update it to the latest release?

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2013-10-13 23:14:46 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this
request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 3 Petr Viktorin (pviktori) 2016-07-14 15:29:19 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 6 is entering the Production 2 phase of its lifetime and this bug doesn't meet the criteria for it, i.e. only high severity issues will be fixed. Please see https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ for further information.

This issue is fixed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 7.
