According to 'timedatectl' command, my system is set to remove the DST
bit in a month from now, which means that Ubuntu users didn't suffer
from today catastrophe, but if these users will be naive and think that
their machines are up-to-date, it'd hit them when no one will alert
enough time in advance, on October 6th.
$ timedatectl

We need this emergency fix as soon as possible, because users are
starting to look for workarounds, and not all these workarounds are good
enough for daily use, and these workarounds could break packages when an
update will arrive.
