Looking at the bug log, I see a patch, I see it applied in git, and all
I see about this bug's not being fixed is:
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=765976;msg=55

where you didn't exactly explain anything about why this patch is not or
no longer sufficient, or what a new patch should look like.

Initial patch was at:
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=765976#5

and tzmap.override was last touched in:
| commit 6fe0cece30e4f93917f169a5c6d8d70ab0d5d11e
| Author: Christian Perrier <bubulle@Êebian.org>
| Date:   Wed Oct 22 08:05:10 2014 +0200
| 
|     Use Europe/Berlin as timezone for Germany, skipping the Büsingen question. Closes: #765976

| diff --git a/tzmap.override b/tzmap.override

which except for the typo in Christian's mail address looks like what we
were supposed to commit.

So I suggest you stop bitching about how “trivial” and “hillarious” this
bug is, and that you provide details, facts, or if you were so inclined,
an updated patch?


Not amused,
KiBi.
