I downloaded the timezone + glibc patches for sles8 which are supposed to

linux1:/tmp # rpm -q timezone
timezone-2.2.5-235


What is the correct timezone version that includes the updates??

Always, the latest:-)

btw There's a reason /etc/localtime is a copy and not a symlink. IMV it
should have been updated to save folk like you (why _should_ you have to
know that?). I suggest you report it as a bug.
