reopen 420895 found 420895 2007f-3 thanks Two people reported on debian-user-spanish@l.d.o[1] problems upgrading to tzdata 2007f-3 from some previous version, most likely the one on etch (both novice users, are not really sure what precise version). The upgrade died on configuring the package. I got them to run the postinst script with debconf debugging enabled, and they sent traces ending like: > ... > debconf (developer): <-- CAPB backup > debconf (developer): --> 0 multiselect escape > debconf (developer): <-- FSET tzdata/Areas seen true > debconf (developer): --> 0 true > debconf (developer): <-- FSET tzdata/Zones/America/Argentina seen true > debconf (developer): --> 10 tzdata/Zones/America/Argentina doesn't exist Their timezone was set to America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires Simply running tzconfig solved their problems. I suspect some of the old timezones were missed when converting.
