Sobral >Organization: >Release: FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT i386 >Environment: Any FreeBSD. >Description: Brazil can't decide on which days should daylight savings begin/end. It began October 6 last year (because of Pope's visit and foreign network television not paying attention to when would DS begin), and it will end March first this year because of electrical problems. Aside from that, and until the next time someone decides he has nothing better to do, latest normal rules apply. >How-To-Repeat: Wait a single more week... :-) >Fix: This fix corrects not only the newest government bs, but it also corrects last year government bs, since whoever handed around the patch last year did not follow my advise to submit it. *** southamerica.orig Wed Feb 11 21:06:09 1998 --- southamerica Wed Feb 11 21:06:58 1998 *************** *** 272,277 **** --- 272,279 ---- Rule Brazil 1994 1995 - Feb Sun>=15 0:00 0 S Rule Brazil 1996 max - Feb Sun>=11 0:00 0 S Rule Brazil 1996 max - Oct Sun>=1 0:00 1:00 D + Rule Brazil 1997 only - Oct 6 0:00 1:00 D + Rule Brazil 1998 only - Mar 1 0:00 0 S # Zone NAME GMTOFF RULES FORMAT [UNTIL] # >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
