Isn't it easier to just update to tzdata-2004e-1.fc2 that has been
released as FC2 update a week ago?

Sorry, friend. I had up2dated my machine and it didn't report me any
updated package.

I thought it wasn't updated in Fedora Core, since all my customers who
use Red Hat EL v3 had this problem. There is NO update for this
problem under RHEL v3, is there?

Sorry for disturbing you again, next time I'll do more researching
before posting a bug.
