Timezone Australia/West is wrong

[jan_au]

Hello,

Recently, Western Australia has introduced a trail of daylight savings.

The timezone here is currently GMT+9 and will be so from mid December through to mid March for the next three years.

Is there a way of getting this added to the zoneinfo?

In the interim can someone suggest to me how I can set a GMT+9 timezone?

Thanks,

jan

Try a newer sys-libs/timezone-data. If it doesn't help, file a bug. There are some packages, which come with their own timezone data, though (e.g. PostgreSQL).

ive not actually checked what im running.

there have been some timezone updates. if u emerge --sync && emerge -up world then you will be able to see if theres any newer timezone data for you.
