Note that this explanation in your commit is wrong and unhelpful: "likely because datetime.datetime.now in the native Windows Python takes into account both system timezone data and the TZ environment variable". When TZ is set, localtime() is based only on the TZ value, and daylight saving time uses only U.S. rules (e.g. beginning 2021-03-14 and ending 2021-11-07). The value must be of the form "tzn [+|-]hh[:mm[:ss] ][dzn]", but there is no validation. So "Europe/Moscow" is invalid and gets parsed as UTC with U.S. DST. I recommend clearing the TZ variable because the value format is non-standard, and its DST support is U.S.-centric nonsense. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44352> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
