Description of problem: Because of the Commonwealth Games here in Melbourne this year the various Australian states that do Daylight Savings Time have put back the end of DST to April 2nd for 2006 (was March 26th). However, this is not reflected in the glibc-common in RH7.3 yet. $ zdump -v /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Melbourne | grep 2006 /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Melbourne Sat Mar 25 15:59:59 2006 UTC = Sun Mar 26 02:59:59 2006 EST isdst=1 gmtoff=39600 /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Melbourne Sat Mar 25 16:00:00 2006 UTC = Sun Mar 26 02:00:00 2006 EST isdst=0 gmtoff=36000 /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Melbourne Sat Oct 28 15:59:59 2006 UTC = Sun Oct 29 01:59:59 2006 EST isdst=0 gmtoff=36000 /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Melbourne Sat Oct 28 16:00:00 2006 UTC = Sun Oct 29 03:00:00 2006 EST isdst=1 gmtoff=39600 A corrected TZ file from FC4 shows that it should be: $ zdump -v /tmp/Melbourne | grep 2006 /tmp/Melbourne Sat Apr 1 15:59:59 2006 UTC = Sun Apr 2 02:59:59 2006 EST isdst=1 gmtoff=39600 /tmp/Melbourne Sat Apr 1 16:00:00 2006 UTC = Sun Apr 2 02:00:00 2006 EST isdst=0 gmtoff=36000 /tmp/Melbourne Sat Oct 28 15:59:59 2006 UTC = Sun Oct 29 01:59:59 2006 EST isdst=0 gmtoff=36000 /tmp/Melbourne Sat Oct 28 16:00:00 2006 UTC = Sun Oct 29 03:00:00 2006 EST isdst=1 gmtoff=39600 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glibc-common-2.2.5-44.legacy.6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. zdump -v /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Melbourne | grep 2006 2. 3.
