Is this really a bug in timezones ? It seems quite similar to the
problem I have myself (as the maintainer - never heard of anyone else
speaking on this) while upgrading e2fsprogs to 1.10-9. I thought it
might have been a bug in dpkg's dependency mechanism; I guess I
reported that, but can't find out a copy in my folders, neither can I
find it from the headers in "Unanswered pbs"...
Does someone have an idea about that ?
