Hi,

when installing with location Germany, the choice between Büsingen and Berlin 
timezone is offered. This choice is funny on first installation(s) but get's 
tiring rather quickly.

Büsingen is a tiny German village surrounced by Switzerland, which in 1983 for 
a summer had a different time (DST vs not) than Berlin. Since then Berlin, 
Bern and Büsingen run in sync. So this question is totally pointless today. 

(And yes, timezones may changes. They do all the time, as we know. No big 
deal. And if you want+need to do calculations about _that time_ _there_, in 
Büsingen, you will know about this and act accordingly. But you won't need the 
system time to be Büsingen for that. And even if...)

Trivial patch for tzmap.override attached, thanks Joey for the hint.

If needed/wanted, I'd be glad to do the needed upload.


cheers,
	Holger
