                    zones
           Product: kscreenlocker
           Version: 5.5.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux

After upgrading tzdata to 2016d version some of applications unable to
determine right timezone for all zones which belong to Kazakhstan. I personally
use Asia/Almaty (which is +06:00 and no DST) on my machine (Arch Linux with
Plasma 5.6), and it leads some programs to produce unexpected results. E.g.:
Digital Clock applet shows -12 hours from current time and Plasma Lockscreen
shows time in UTC. I tried downgrade to 2016c and it works just fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. You should have KDE Plasma 5.6.3 DE installed (not tested on other software)
2. Install tzdata-2016d-1-any package 3. Set your time zone to Asia/Almaty
3.1 Go to Lockscreen. You'll see that time shown in UTC
3.2 Add "Digital Clock" widget to your desktop. In settings of widget set time
zone to Local or Asia/Almaty. 

Actual Results:  
KScreenLocker shows time in UTC

Expected Results:  
It should show time in +06 UTC offset

tzdata version 2016d
