Ok, thanks Anyway for the current status, 2011h is in s-p-u, while sid has 2011j, bringing DST changes for Samoa, New Foundland and creating a South Soudan entry. 2011k is going to be released on September 26th, bringing changes to Palestine and Belarus. So it looks like we can already upload 2011i for Lenny, and push 2011j to volatile just after. For Squeeze we can go directly to 2011j. 2011k? Yes, sorry Can I already start with the upload to o-s-p-u or should I open a bug for that? Feel free to upload if you wish. fwiw, although uploads for 5.0.9 officially close over the weekend, I'd be minded to make an exception for a tzdata upload if it could made as early in the week as reasonably possible. Ok, I have just uploaded 2011j to o-s-p-u for now. I will see if 2011k is really released on Monday. It contains quite important changes, but not urgent (they will be need for the 3rd week of October). There is currently a lot of discussions on the upstream mailing list for the name of the new timezone for West Russia, Belarus and Ukraine. For squeeze, I'll wait to see how things are going upstream and will upload either 2011j or 2011k depending on that. -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-glibc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I know Aurelien mentioned that there was probably another update for lenny/squeeze appearing before the point releases in any case, but I'm not sure what the status is there.

The new upstream version, tzdata 2011h updates timezone information for Antartica, Chile, Egypt, Falkland Islands, Morocco, Russia. You will find the debdiff below. Is it ok to upload it to stable?
