Description Max Waterman 2005-02-15 08:53:55 UTC

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US;
rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050128 Firefox/1.0+

Description of problem:
When installing, Beijing is not listed, but Shanghai is.

Since Beijing is the capital of China (not Shanghai), this might prove
to be a political faux pas.

Please consider changing it to have Beijing in addition or instead of
Shanghai.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-10.1.0.2-1

How reproducible:

Additional info:
Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2005-02-20 20:36:59 UTC 
The time zone information comes directly from tzdata
Comment 2 Jakub Jelinek 2005-02-20 21:52:50 UTC 
The timezone names are not necessarily capital names.  Furthermore, we make no
modifications to the upstream timezone data and there are no exceptions to this.
So if you want something changed in timezone data, you better find strong
arguments and argue about it with upstream, which is tz@elsie.nci.nih.gov
mailing list.
