Bug#303920: libc6: Nicaragua introduces DST at 12:00pm 09/04/2005
Hello!
I made up a patch for zoneinfo/America/Managua, which we are using by
now.
You can find it at:
http://www.magma.com.ni/sw/time/
It is based on adding the following two entries in
/glibc-2.3.2/timezone/northamerica:
-6:00 - CST 2005 Apr 10 00:00
-6:00 Nic C%sT
I have seen however problems with php too, as well as I suspect that
java maintains it's own timezoneinfo.
Also, I still have no further notice by now, when the timezone-change
will end.
Best Regards,
Jorge-León
P.S.: please apologize for beeing terse and replying late. I *will* try
to keep track of this issue and keep you informed. Please identify to
whom to report.
