Oh my. I thought it would come from zone.tab, but I was wrong.
Apparently geoip has its own hardcoded list of country->timezone
mappings embedded in C code, which includes:
else if ( strcmp (country, "CN") == 0 ) {
timezone = "Asia/Chongqing";
}
I'll open a bug task on geoip to indicate that this should change to
Asia/Shanghai. Note that, in order to be effective, somebody will have
to coordinate with the Canonical sysadmins to get the patch applied on
geoip.ubuntu.com as well; I'm happy to do this if somebody gives me a
nudge (e.g. on IRC).
