I don't believe so. "fromname" is the time zone name that appears in the input files;
fromname is the completed file name, an absolute path. fromfile can be relative name. If it is, then then filename is extended by prepending the common directory name. In the code the patch is changing symlinkcontents is a first prepended with enough ../ to get to the root directory. Then in your version fromfile is appended. This is wrong when fromfile is not an absolute path. fromname is the correct value. -- ➧ Ulrich Drepper ➧ Red Hat, Inc. ➧ 444 Castro St ➧ Mountain View, CA ❖
