Package: libdatetime-timezone-perl
Version: 1:0.28-1
Severity: important

"Sarge" contains obsolete timezone information.
The released package for Sarge does not contain the latest US DST changes,
so any code using this package and depending on US time will be wrong for
about 4 weeks a year.

Please consider releasing a more recent version for Sarge.
The timezone database should probably match the one installed with libc.

I can provide a test program to demonstrate the problem if desired.
