It is even stranger, how those four regions and their naming were picked, neither official administrative boundaries nor naming were used, in general there is no particular logical reasons to be seen. Looks like clear case of some sort of political/ethnical revisionism, which certainly does not belong to the scope of FreeBSD project. >How-To-Repeat: Run /stand/sysinstall, choose Configuration->TimeZone->Europe->Ukraine, check result of choosing any region (all will set TZ to EEST). >Fix: Set EEST time zone for entire Ukraine, like for the rest of East European countries. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
