Hi Laurent,

Did you try to install the other tzdata packets like:

tzdata-africa
tzdata-americas
tzdata-antarctica
tzdata-arctic
tzdata-asia
tzdata-atlantic
tzdata-australia
tzdata-europe
tzdata-misc
tzdata-pacific
tzdata-posix
tzdata-right

This should give you a complete set.

Regards Siebren

Thanks for the reply Siebren,

I found your mentionned packages in the package browser from the Angstrom 
Distribution at http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/?letter=t 
They seems all to be available for my architecture (armv5te)

However looking into my copy of openembedded/receipes directory I can only see 
tzdata


user@si14-imx28-bsp:/opt/openembedded/openembedded/recipes$ ls
...
...
cowsay                     gutenprint             man                           
   orinoco                              tximage
cpio                       gwaterpas              man-pages                     
   orpheus                              tzcode
cppunit                    gweled                 manufacturers                 
   orrery                               tzdata
cpubench                   gxine                  maradns                       
   ortp                                 u2nl
cpuburn                    gypsy                  masqmail                      
   otpcalc                              uae
cpufreqd                   gzip                   matchbox2                     
   otpkeygen                            ubahnnav
cpusage                    h2200-bootloader       matchbox-applet-cards         
   owfs                                 u-boot
...
...


So I guess that I am missing the step:

* between downloading these packages from 
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/repo/?letter=t - they are coming in form 
of .ipk files
* and to have these packages available in form of recipes in my 
openembedded/recipes directory so that I can add these additional packages to 
my bitbake rules.

Laurent
