Hmm otherwise nothing of the core was updated: the only things I found
was libc and locales, and I didn't see anything else which could have
caused the sudden switch.

Now I reconfigured tzdata and I am back in CET, but tzdata was updated
last time on Nov 13 2007 (according to my aptitude log file).

Hmm, strange ...

Best wishes

Norbert
