Bug Description
Binary package hint: php5
Seems like php5 in hardy has bundled, and now out-of-date, tzdata. Sydney just hit DST this weekend (October 5), but php5 seems to think it will happen on the old date of October 26. I have attached a script that provides this output.

I blogged a quick workaround for people suffering this bug:

(php5-timezonedb was synced and then removed from intrepid, largely because it seems that intrepid's php5 includes a patch to support using the system tzdata... would be awesome to get that patch into hardy!)
