Hello,

On September 20th, 2011 there were changes made to Ukrainian laws
concerning time zone. tzdata needs upgrade.

The time zone changes work okay in Debian, but do not work in Trisquel.

Compare outputs of 'date'.  This looks like the right one (FET, both
21:57):

   # echo $(lsb_release -ircs)
   Debian 5.0.9 lenny
   # aptitude show tzdata | egrep '^Version:'
   Version: 2011k-0lenny1
   # (export TZ='Europe/Kiev'; date --date='2011-10-29 18:57 UTC')
   Sat Oct 29 21:57:00 FET 2011
   # (export TZ='Europe/Kiev'; date --date='2011-10-30 18:57 UTC')
   Sun Oct 30 21:57:00 FET 2011

This is not right (tried it *after* 'aptitude upgrade tzdata'):

   $ echo $(lsb_release -ircs)
   Trisquel 4.5 slaine
   $ aptitude show tzdata | egrep '^Version:'
   Version: 2011g-0ubuntu0.10.10
   $ (export TZ='Europe/Kiev'; date --date='2011-10-29 18:57 UTC')
   Sat Oct 29 21:57:00 EEST 2011
   $ (export TZ='Europe/Kiev'; date --date='2011-10-30 18:57 UTC')
   Sun Oct 30 20:57:00 EET 2011

Where is the right place to file this bug?
