Hi All,
Brazil recently abolished daylight savings time, resulting in updates
to system timezone information packages.
Does postgres use these? If so, does it need a reload or restart to
see the updated zone info?
If not, how does postgres store/obtain its timezone zone information
and how would this be updated?
https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/1960/
PostgreSQL 11.5, 10.10, 9.6.15, 9.5.19, 9.4.24, and 12 Beta 3 Released!
"This update also contains tzdata release 2019b for DST law changes in
Brazil, plus historical corrections for Hong Kong, Italy, and Palestine.
This update also adds support for zic's new -b slim option to reduce the
size of the installed zone files, though it is not currently being used
by PostgreSQL."
Hmm. Is there any option to use the system timezone packages?
If not, why not?
