This update provides the latest timezone information (2017a) for your system, including the
following changes:
- Mongolia no longer observes DST. (bsc#1024676)
- Chile's Region of Magallanes moves from -04/-03 to -03 year-round starting 2017-05-13 23:00.
Split from America/Santiago creating a new zone America/Punta_Arenas.
Also affects Antarctica/Palmer. (bsc#1024677)
- Fixes to historical time stamps: Spain, Ecuador, Atyrau, Oral.
- Switch to numeric, or commonly used time zone abbreviations.
- zic(8) no longer mishandles some transitions in January 2038.
- date and strftime now cause %z to generate "-0000" instead of "+0000" when the UT offset is
zero and the time zone abbreviation begins with "-".
