I presume any users in that situation will remain on UTC ;-) Seriously, 5.0 is distinctly old in LFS terms, and we expect people to rebuild their systems from time to time. For a desktop, 5.0 is so old it isn't funny. The issue exists for anybody using glibc < 2.3.6. If you don't want to upgrade, I guess you can build 2.3.6 with a different prefix, install it there, and then copy the updated timezone data files to /usr/share/zoneinfo. Obviously needs to be tested on a non-production system! ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
