[VUA 50-1] Update tzdata package fixes time information for Argentina

Debian Volatile Update Announcement VUA 50-1     http://volatile.debian.org

Package              : tzdata
Version              : 2008e-1etch3
Importance           : low
CVE IDs              : -

The tzdata package in etch does not contain up-to-date timezone
information for Argentina, due to the sudden decision on setting
the start of daylight saving time, while allowing some provinces
to not apply the change. That change will be effective very soon.

For etch, an updated tzdata package is available in etch/volatile
as version 2008e-1etch3. (The (binary-)same package will be part
of the next Etch point release as well.)

We recommend that you update your system.
