Bug#666502: python-tz: returns incorrect UTC offsets

Do you intend to try to fix this in Squeeze? (See [1]) AFAICS, the fix is known and thus could be easily fixed in Squeeze (note that there are other related fixes to tzname() and dst() methods). Well, it could be done, especially considering that the fix[0] is not really intrusive. As you pointed out, perhaps tzname[1] and dst[2] fixes could be added too. I have only done one upload of python-tz so far, therefore I'm not so familiar with it, but these patches seem pretty straightforward... -- Arnaud Fontaine [0] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stub/pytz/devel/revision/212 [1] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stub/pytz/devel/revision/214 [2] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~stub/pytz/devel/revision/213 pgpZO5cZWNDge.pgp Description: PGP signature

Please ask for a stable-update on debian-release by filing a pu bugreport against release.debian.org. (That's the best way to find out if an update is feasible ;)).
