I am seeing similar issue with Europe/Samara being confused with Asia/Samarkand. # cat /etc/timezone Europe/Samara # php -i|grep -i timezone "Olson" Timezone Database Version => 0.system Timezone Database => internal Default timezone => Asia/Samarkand date.timezone => no value => no value # printf '<?php\necho date("c"), "\\n";\n'|php 2013-08-28T17:38:31+05:00 # printf '<?php\necho date("c"), "\\n";\n'|TZ=Europe/Samara php 2013-08-28T17:38:36+05:00 # printf '<?php\necho date("c"), "\\n";\n'|TZ=Europe/Moscow php 2013-08-28T16:38:40+04:00 # date Wed Aug 28 16:38:55 SAMT 2013 # printf '<?php\necho date("c"), "\\n";\n'|php -d date.timezone=Europe/Samara 2013-08-28T16:39:45+04:00 The last 3 variants show correct time. After looking into use_embedded_timezonedb.patch I think that timelib_timezone_id_from_abbr is called with "SAMT" as the first agrument. And according to tzdata sources "SAMT" was used by Asia/Samarkand in the past. And it even was UTC+4 before 1930. And php's zone_search picks the first entry from timezonemap.h: $ grep '"samt".*1440*' php5-5.4.4/ext/date/lib/timezonemap.h { "samt", 0, 14400, "Asia/Samarkand" }, { "samt", 0, 14400, "Europe/Samara" }, Australia/Sydney has the same problem with "EST": it was used by Antarctica/Macquarie: $ grep '"est".*36000*' php5-5.4.4/ext/date/lib/timezonemap.h { "est", 0, 36000, "Antarctica/Macquarie" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/ACT" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Brisbane" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Canberra" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Currie" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Hobart" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/LHI" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Lindeman" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Lord_Howe" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Melbourne" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/NSW" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Queensland" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Sydney" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Tasmania" }, { "est", 0, 36000, "Australia/Victoria" }, -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
