Morocco not ending DST tonight - instead extending by one month
by Steffen Thorsen Oct. 4, 2013

Oct. 4, 2013

Morocco extends DST by one month, on very short notice, just 1 day before it was going to end. There is a new decree (2.13.781) for this, where DST from now on goes from last Sunday of March at 02:00 to last Sunday of October at 03:00, similar to EU rules. Official source (French): http://www.maroc.gov.ma/fr/actualites/lhoraire-dete-gmt1-maintenu-jusquau-2… Another source (specifying the time for start and end in the decree): http://www.lemag.ma/Heure-d-ete-au-Maroc-jusqu-au-27-octobre_a75620.html Our brief summary in English: http://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/morocco-ends-dst-2013.html Best regards, Steffen Thorsen - timeanddate.com

Cellphone tz updates often not happening in Israel
by Paul Eggert Oct. 3, 2013

Oct. 3, 2013

A couple of weeks ago there were widespread reports of problems in the tz database's updates getting propagated to end users in Israel. Many cellphones running Android, BlackBerry, iOS, and Symbian were still based on tz release 2012g or earlier, i.e., they had not updated even to tz release 2012h (2012-10-26), much less to the current rules for Israel as per tz release 2013d (2013-07-05). Hundreds of thousands of cellphones were reportedly affected by the problem, and some cellphone companies worked around the problem by advising their users to switch to Athens time. Unfortunately, Europe/Athens is also incorrect for Israel, as it gets the transition wrong by two hours this fall and by 49 hours next spring. And even if users were advised to switch back to Asia/Jerusalem after next month I wouldn't be surprised if some users forget, and run into a similar problem in March. I wonder why the cellphones' copies of the tz database are not being updated? My sources: Elis N. Israel does the time warp; daylight savings glitch wreaks havoc.

Re: [tz] Minor build fixes (#3)
by Paul Eggert Oct. 2, 2013

Oct. 2, 2013

Thanks, I pushed the following slightly-more-ambitious patch, which I think addresses all the issues you raised. >From 1d67c5bfca504b728bd7dd22d19128721196e20e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Eggert <eggert(a)cs.ucla.edu> Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2013 10:48:46 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] build: Makefile fixes; let user give AR and RANLIB; local libtz.a * Makefile: Let the user override AR, and build libtz.a before installing it, as suggested by Michael Forney in <https://github.com/eggert/tz/pull/3>. Also, let the user override RANLIB. Modernize a bit by assuming POSIX.2-1992 or later; this is safe nowadays and simplifies the libtz.a business. And treat 'leapseconds' more like we used to, since it's machine-independent a 'make clean' doesn't need to remove it. (TZLIB): Remove. (AR, RANLIB): New macros. (TABDATA): Add leapseconds, so that 'make' builds it by default. (DATA): Remove leapseconds, since $(TABDATA) now has it. (all): Depend on libtz.a, not $(LIBOBJS). (install): Install libtz.a using 'cp', like other files. Also invoke $(RANLIB) on it, after installing. Do not assume that TZDIR is not overridden. (install, INSTALL, check_time_t_alternatives): Use 'mkdir -p', as it's safe to assume nowadays (standardized in POSIX.2-1992). (install, INSTALL): Prefer 'cp -f' to 'rm' followed by 'cp', as it's safe to assume 'cp -f' nowadays (also standardized in POSIX.2-1992). (libtz.a): Rename from $(DESTDIR)$(TZLIB), since we now build it here. Use $(AR) rather than ar. Use $(RANLIB) rather than trying to guess it. (clean_misc): Do not remove 'leapseconds', as it's machine-independent. (maintainer-clean): Remove 'leapseconds' here instead. (clean, check_public): Standardize on 'rm -fr' rather than 'rm -f -r'; formerly the makefile was inconsistent. (set-timestamps.out): Don't ignore failurs of the actual touch command. --- Makefile | 92 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------------------------- 1 file changed, 43 insertions(+), 49 deletions(-) diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index 1f83dde..74923e7 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -72,7 +72,6 @@ MANDIR= $(TOPDIR)/man # Library functions are put in an archive in LIBDIR.

tzcode2013g and tzdata2013g available
by Paul Eggert Oct. 1, 2013

Oct. 1, 2013

[This is a copy of a message that just got sent to tz-announce(a)iana.org; it didn't get propagated automatically to tz(a)iana.org so I'm rebroadcasting it by hand.] The 2013g release of the tz code and data is available. It reflects the following changes, which were either circulated on the tz mailing list or are relatively minor technical or administrative changes: Changes affecting current and near-future time stamps Morocco now observes DST from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October, not April to September respectively. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Changes affecting 'zic' 'zic' now runs on platforms that lack both hard links and symlinks. (Thanks to Theo Veenker for reporting the problem, for MinGW.) Also, fix some bugs on platforms that lack hard links but have symlinks. 'zic -v' again warns that Asia/Tehran has no POSIX environment variable to predict the far future, fixing a bug introduced in 2013e. Changes affecting the build procedure The 'leapseconds' file is again put into the tzdata tarball. Also, 'leapseconds.awk', so tzdata is self-contained. (Thanks to Matt Burgess and Ian Abbott.) The timestamps of these and other dependent files in tarballs are adjusted more consistently. Changes affecting documentation and commentary The README file is now part of the data tarball as well as the code. It now states that files are public domain unless otherwise specified. (Thanks to Andrew Main (Zefram) for asking for clarifications.) Its details about the 1989 release moved to a place of honor near the end of NEWS. Here are links to the release files: ftp://ftp.iana.org/tz/releases/tzcode2013g.tar.gz ftp://ftp.iana.org/tz/releases/tzdata2013g.tar.gz The files are also available via HTTP as follows: http://www.iana.org/time-zones/repository/releases/tzcode2013g.tar.gz http://www.iana.org/time-zones/repository/releases/tzdata2013g.tar.gz Each release file has a GPG signature, which can be retrieved by appending ".asc" to the above URLs.
