Package: tzdata
Version: 2007j-1etch1
Severity: normal
My default time zone is Australia/Victoria. I wanted to change this to
Australia/Melbourne, as I understand the preferred form is now
Content/City.
This time zone exists on my Red Hat system, but not on my Debian system.
I note the time zone appears in the upstream sources, so it could be
that the /usr/share/zoneinfo directory was created by an earlier version
of the tzdata package and the upgrade to 2007j didn't handle this
properly.

tzconfig is reading the timezones from /usr/share/zoneinfo, and the
version 2007j-etch1 has the timezone Australia/Melbourne. Note also that
tzconfig hasn't changed as it is in a different package.
Maybe the package has only be partially installed, otherwise I don't see
how timezones (ie files) can appear and disappear.
