One rule covers the northern three-quarters of Idaho county and another rule covers the remaining southern quarter of Idaho county. So what's the bug? -- -=( Ian Abbott @ MEV Ltd. E-mail: <abbotti@mev.co.uk> )=- -=( Tel: +44 (0)161 477 1898 FAX: +44 (0)161 718 3587 )=-

One rule covers the northern three-quarters of Idaho county Maybe you can point the readers to which that would be.
and another rule covers the remaining southern quarter of Idaho county. I am not interested in that other rule.
So what's the bug? See the bug report named "Bug in tzdata2012c/northamerica 2x Idaho County in America/Los_Angeles"

"northern Idaho" refers to that part of the state of Idaho listed within the parentheses. Within the parentheses, "Idaho" refers to Idaho City. So I suppose the "bug" is that it should say "Idaho City".
Except that Idaho City is in Boise County, which is covered by a different rule, so maybe it's not referring to Idaho City after all. It all depends which rule covers Idaho City. So which rule covers Idaho City, America/Los_Angeles or America/Boise? Whichever rule it is, I guess the comment(s) could be improved. -- -=( Ian Abbott @ MEV Ltd.

One rule covers the northern three-quarters of Idaho county and another rule covers the remaining southern quarter of Idaho county.
So what's the bug?
I presume that Mr Conradi is talking about the fact that the quoted bit mentions several counties by name, including Benewah county, Idaho county, and Shoshone county... and then mentions Idaho county again (this time with the qualifier "the northern three-quarters"). If the rule covers the whole of Idaho county, then the last bit ", and the northern three-quarters of Idao county" after "Shoshone counties" should be removed. If the rule covers only the northern three-quarters of Idaho county, then "Idaho, " should be removed from the list of (complete) counties affected.
