Bug#643701: Current tzdata version doesn't include recent russian time changes (daylight-saving time cancelled)

[Serge Pokhodyaev <snp@z9.ru>]

Package: tzdata
Version: 2011d-0squeeze1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream


Current tzdata version doesn't include recent russian time changes (daylight-saving time cancelled). It can be checked:

   % dpkg -l |grep tzdata
   ii  tzdata                               2011d-0squeeze1              time zone and daylight-saving time data
   % date -R -d 'now + 60 days'

Debian testing (on my other host) contains newer tzdata version, so timezone is correct:

   % dpkg -l |grep tzdata
   ii  tzdata                               2011j-1                      time zone and daylight-saving time data
   % date -R -d 'now + 60 days'
