You have to run "apt-get upgrade" to actually get the package(s) with
the corrected timezone data. ("update" only updates the list of
available packages but it does not upgrade anything on your system.)

After you do this, run

zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2007

and check the dates. Report back if you still do not see March 11 and
November 4. Also check if the date command shows "EDT" instead of "EST"
after you upgrade. (It should also show the correct time, of course.)

Yes, it's all good.

P.S. You can remove the outdated "ftp.nerim.net" line from your
     /etc/apt/sources.list to get rid of that error message. Marillat's
     packages are now at www.debian-multimedia.org. (This is completely
     unrelated to your current timezone problem.)

Cool, thanks alot Florian.
