Package: tzdata
Version: 2015c-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I am choosing Europe/Minsk as a time zone, however tzdata sets it to MSK time
zone, which is Europe/Moscow
As a result, many web sites that use time zone information, detect my country
settings wrongly.

Thanks for the hint. I am therefore closing this bug as we also have the
2016g version in debian.
