Hi,

some of my (lenny) systems are set to UTC, some to the local timezone. If they
are using UTC, I've configured this with "dpkg-reconfigure tzdata", which
AFAIK is the recommended way.

After the tzdata update today, those systems set to UTC were set back to local
timezone. AIUI this shouldnt be the case.


cheers,
	Holger

Do you have any idea what the contents of /etc/timezone were before the upgrade?
