Nobody requested about this changes in lenny or squeeze, so I guess they are not that important. It's very important update for everyone using debian in Russia, so please, consider to push it to -updates and include in oldstable. Our law on this matter become effective next week (September, 7) and all systems where patch will not be installed on October, 30 will have incorrect time. For the record, after some discussion with the maintainers on IRC and as the next point releases for both stable and oldstable are due to occur before mid-October, we've decided not to push an update earlier. There may be an update to either package before the point release in order to incorporate any further changes. Well, in Egypt, as of the last Friday of April 2011, a Squeeze installation has incorrect time. I believe pushing an update is worth reconsidering. -- Youssef Eldakar Bibliotheca Alexandrina -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-glibc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I myself was using Ubuntu - which had the updated tzdata package - and was recently considering switching a group of hosts to Debian when I ran into the issue. -- Youssef Eldakar Bibliotheca Alexandrina -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-glibc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
