I am running mostly CentOS 4.3. Does it have the fixes?
Chris Grau pointed out this nifty command:
rpm -q tzdata --changelog|less
which includes change 2005r:
- 2005r
- Zones EST, MST, HST, EST5EDT, CST6CDT, MST7MDT, PST8PDT moved to
northamerica to guard against old files with obsolete information
being left in the time zone binary directory.
- Changes for countries that are supposed to join 2007 US DST
change. This includes most of Canada, however entries already in
the database (Alberta, British Columbia, Newfoundland, Northwest
Territories, and Yukon) were left alone for the time being.
- Fixes in zdump.c (abbrok): conditions are chained, and the string
is checked for emptiness.
That middle entry looks like the one. So CentOS 4.3 or newer is good to
go. I'm pretty sure our debian boxes are not. They were built over a
year ago and haven't been updated. So now I get to figure out how to go
about doing that without upsetting too much.
