Hi Freebsd-hackers I want to create a compiled TZ database file from a posix expression. Is there any unix utility which can create the TZ database out of the posix expression? I do check the zic command but I was not able to find a way to provide posix expression rules as input to the zic. Is there any way to use posix expression with zic? eg. EST5EDT,M10.3.0,M2.3.0 I need the compiled database as I want timezone to be persistent across all the sessions so that /etc/localtime can be linked to the compiled database. Directly setting TZ variable to posix expression will not help as it will not be persistent over session as well after reboot. Regards Harsh Arya
