-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Greetings, Since 2007j, tzdata reflects the new Venezuelan timezone, UTC-0430 with the complete rule history: Zone America/Caracas -4:27:44 - LMT 1890 ~ ... ~ -4:30 - VET JavaScript applications running on Gecko-based programs such as Firefox and Thunderbird experience a weird behavior where the calendars and other applications are one day forward thus rendering most of these applications unusable. On the month of this switch (Dec 07), some calendars (i.e., the Lightning extension for Thunderbird) shown full rows of Dec 9th. in all the days of the month! I narrowed the problem to JavaScript applications running on Mozilla after testing CLI-based calendars and other calendars based on glibc, and finally testing with Konqueror with successful results. This problem has been already reported on Mozilla's Bugzilla. Anyway, if I remove the complete rule history and leave the current VET timezone (UTC-0430) as the only rule for America/Caracas, all applications work correctly, which is curious (and also non-desirable, since it misses the fact that applications using timestamps before the timezone changes will be taken into account with the correct calculations) Maybe someone could provide a pointer about this problem and why it's being seen only on Gecko applications.
