Bug Description
Binary package hint: tzdata
I've just noticed that the clock went forward one hour, when it shouldn't have.
It looks like a bug in tzdata.
So at Oct 5 00:46 (Argentinian time), my Ubuntu boxes reported 01:46.
All of them were running 8.04, with tzdata 2008e-1ubuntu0.
told this bug is also present in Debian lenny and etch.
If you need any additional information, please let me know.
Thanks,
Alberto
