Changelog for timezone-debuginfo-2024a-150000.75.28.1.x86_64.rpm :

* Fri Feb 23 2024 danilo.spinellaAATTsuse.com- update to 2024a:
* Kazakhstan unifies on UTC+5. This affects Asia/Almaty and Asia/Qostanay which together represent the eastern portion of the country that will transition from UTC+6 on 2024-03-01 at 00:00 to join the western portion. (Thanks to Zhanbolat Raimbekov.)
* Palestine springs forward a week later than previously predicted in 2024 and 2025. (Thanks to Heba Hamad.) Change spring-forward predictions to the second Saturday after Ramadan, not the first; this also affects other predictions starting in 2039.
* Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh\'s 1955-07-01 transition occurred at 01:00 not 00:00. (Thanks to Đoàn Trần Công Danh.)
* From 1947 through 1949, Toronto\'s transitions occurred at 02:00 not 00:00. (Thanks to Chris Walton.)
* In 1911 Miquelon adopted standard time on June 15, not May 15.
* The FROM and TO columns of Rule lines can no longer be \"minimum\" or an abbreviation of \"minimum\", because TZif files do not support DST rules that extend into the indefinite past - although these rules were supported when TZif files had only 32-bit data, this stopped working when 64-bit TZif files were introduced in 1995. This should not be a problem for realistic data, since DST was first used in the 20th century. As a transition aid, FROM columns like \"minimum\" are now diagnosed and then treated as if they were the year 1900; this should suffice for TZif files on old systems with only 32-bit time_t, and it is more compatible with bugs in 2023c-and-earlier localtime.c. (Problem reported by Yoshito Umaoka.)
* localtime and related functions no longer mishandle some timestamps that occur about 400 years after a switch to a time zone with a DST schedule. In 2023d data this problem was visible for some timestamps in November 2422, November 2822, etc. in America/Ciudad_Juarez. (Problem reported by Gilmore Davidson.)
* strftime %s now uses tm_gmtoff if available. (Problem and draft patch reported by Dag-Erling Smørgrav.)
* The strftime man page documents which struct tm members affect which conversion specs, and that tzset is called. (Problems reported by Robert Elz and Steve Summit.)
* Thu Jan 25 2024 danilo.spinellaAATTsuse.com- update to 2023d:

* localtime.c no longer mishandles TZif files that contain a single transition into a DST regime. Previously, it incorrectly assumed DST was in effect before the transition too.
* tzselect no longer creates temporary files.
* tzselect no longer mishandles the following:
* Spaces and most other special characters in BUGEMAIL, PACKAGE, TZDIR, and VERSION.
