           Summary: Date::Manip unable to determine TimeZone.
           Product: Fedora Core
           Version: fc6
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: low
          Priority: normal
         Component: perl-DateManip

Description of problem:
I have set up my timezone as "Asia/Krasnoyarsk" when installing FC6. It corresponds to the KRAT time zone as reported by the date command.

The problem is the perl Date::Manip module isn't recognizing this timezone. If you run perldoc Date::Manip and see the list of the zones it understands, you'll see the KRAT zone isn't listed. Eventually, KRAT is equal to CCT (+0800 China Coast, USSR Zone 7) and echoing CCT to /etc/timezone makes the Date::Manip module happy. But until you do so, all the perl scripts that use Date::Manip fail to run, including /etc/cron.daily/0logwatch.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-DateManip-5.44-1.2.1

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set timezone to KRAT.
2. Run /etc/cron.daily/0logwatch

Actual Results:
ERROR: Date::Manip unable to determine TimeZone.

Execute the following command in a shell prompt:
        perldoc Date::Manip
The section titled TIMEZONES describes valid TimeZones
and where they can be defined.

Expected Results:
The command should run fluently w/o an error.
