Bug Description
Ubuntu 8.04.4, i386
tzdata 2011g
# dpkg -s tzdata | grep Ver
Version: 2011g~repack-
Timezone for Egypt (Cairo) is set to GMT. I think this is not correct and should be +7200 (no DST). Notice gmtoff in the following list:
# zdump -v /usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
/usr/share/
BTW, I thing this issue is an evidence that Ubuntu is not used in Egypt...

I am from Egypt, and using Ubuntu. But I am using Natty.
You seem to be using a very old version of Ubuntu (8.04)
