Does this indicate that I'm using a different version of the timezone package?
Most likely, yes.
How can I determine what version of the timezone package is installed on my system? I hope that I'm using version 2003a.
There should be a way to do this, at least for the timezone code like zdump.c. Perhaps you could add a "--version" option for zdump and zic? If you donated code to do that, I suspect that Arthur David Olson would buy it. zdump has this at the start: #ifndef lint #ifndef NOID static char elsieid[] = "@(#)zdump.c 7.29"; #endif /* !defined NOID */ #endif /* !defined lint */ and zic.c has something similar, but they don't work well. Nowadays many compilers optimize away these unused strings. Basicall, all the "--version" option needs to do is to print the elsieid.
