>Description:
TZ data for Brazil in /usr/src/share/zoneinfo/southamerica
is wrong. DST starts on next Sunday, but the system believes
it has already started. The blame is on the Brazilian government,
which changes the rules for DST every single year.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ TZ=America/Sao_Paulo date
Mon Oct 13 22:44:42 BRST 2003
>Fix:
Merge the latest data from
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2003d.tar.gz
it already has a correct "southamerica" file.
