I just checked my Mageia 3 and found that the files are from 2013c. [solomon@shlomo1 ~]$ /usr/sbin/zdump -v Asia/Jerusalem |grep 2013 Asia/Jerusalem Thu Mar 28 23:59:59 2013 UTC = Fri Mar 29 01:59:59 2013 IST isdst=0 Asia/Jerusalem Fri Mar 29 00:00:00 2013 UTC = Fri Mar 29 03:00:00 2013 IDT isdst=1 Asia/Jerusalem Sat Oct 5 22:59:59 2013 UTC = Sun Oct 6 01:59:59 2013 IDT isdst=1 Asia/Jerusalem Sat Oct 5 23:00:00 2013 UTC = Sun Oct 6 01:00:00 2013 IST isdst=0
I then updated to 2013d from Cauldron (I wonder why no "production" version of 2013d). Now it looks OK. [solomon@shlomo1 ~]$ /usr/sbin/zdump -v Asia/Jerusalem |grep 2013 Asia/Jerusalem Thu Mar 28 23:59:59 2013 UTC = Fri Mar 29 01:59:59 2013 IST isdst=0 Asia/Jerusalem Fri Mar 29 00:00:00 2013 UTC = Fri Mar 29 03:00:00 2013 IDT isdst=1 Asia/Jerusalem Sat Oct 26 22:59:59 2013 UTC = Sun Oct 27 01:59:59 2013 IDT isdst=1 Asia/Jerusalem Sat Oct 26 23:00:00 2013 UTC = Sun Oct 27 01:00:00 2013 IST isdst=0 On Sat, 7 Sep 2013 21:24:19 +0300 "Amichay P.
