Bug#215981: libc6: Please add Brazilian daylight saving data for 2003/2004 summer



Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2-7
Severity: normal

Brazilian daylight saving time start/finish dates are different every
year. Conectiva just released a patched glibc with this year dates[1].

In case you do not want to go chasing their patches, the announcement
has a link to the authoritative source[2], which says that it begins
2003/Oct/19 00:00 and finishes 2004/Feb/15 00:00.

(Yeah, too late to get a package out in testing before then. Already
gotten used to having to fudge timezones by hand every fscking time.)
