The updated clock settings have already been published upstream, at http://www.iana.org/time-zones. Version 2013d of the time zone database, released 2013-07-05, contains this update. That version has already been incorporated in Debian unstable and testing. It is urgent to propagate that version

It seems to work you need to copy the new compiled tzdata file (e.g. Asia/Jerusalem) to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Tel_Aviv. After that you have: zdump -v Asia/Jerusalem | grep 2013 Asia/Jerusalem Thu Mar 28 23:59:59 2013 UTC = Fri Mar 29 01:59:59 2013 IST isdst=0 gmtoff=7200 Asia/Jerusalem Fri
