The bug report would be safe, but RH did have the fix out for Western Australia before DST was implemented two or threee weeks after the enabling legislation.

My guess is that "upstream" is on top of it any all the distros need to is keep an eye on that.




The underlying data isn't distribution or even Linux specific.

I "fixed" my powerbook by copying /etc/localtime from a nahant-clone system.

It takes instantly, but applications may need to be restarted. I alerted KDE by changing to a different timezone (I had chosen to monitor Greece for the Olympics) and back.
