Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Brian May <b...@debian.org> * Package name : tzlocal Version : 2.1 Upstream Author : Lennart Regebro <rege...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/regebro/tzlocal * License : CC0 Programming Lang: Python2 and Python3 Description : tzinfo object for the local timezone
This module attempts to fix a glaring hole in pytz, that there is no way to get the local timezone information, unless you know the zoneinfo name, and under several Linux distros that’s hard or impossible to figure out. . With tzlocal you only need to call get_localzone() and you will get a tzinfo object with the local time zone info. On some Unices you will still not get to know what the timezone name is, but you don’t need that when you have the tzinfo file. However, if the timezone name is readily available it will be used. . This package contains the Python 2 module. This is required for the latest version of apscheduler. I plan to maintain it as part of the Debian Python Modules Team.
