The following packages have been upgraded in the Cygwin distribution: * tzcode 2022c * tzdata 2022c
The Time Zone Database (often called tz, tzdb, or zoneinfo) contains data that represents the history of local time for many locations around the world, and supports conversion of UTC time to local time at those locations to allow display of those local times. It is updated periodically to reflect changes made by political bodies to daylight saving (summer time) rules, UTC offsets, and time zone boundaries. The tzcode package provides the tzselect, zdump, and zic utilities. For more details on changes, please see the announcement or below: https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz-announce/2022-August/000072.html Release 2022c 2022-08-15 17:47:18 -0700 Briefly: * Work around awk bug in FreeBSD, macOS, etc. * Improve tzselect on intercontinental Zones. Changes to code * Work around a bug in onetrueawk that broke commands like 'make traditional_tarballs' on FreeBSD, macOS, etc. * Add code to tzselect that uses experimental structured comments in zone1970.tab to clarify whether Zones like Africa/Abidjan and Europe/Istanbul cross continent or ocean boundaries. * Fix bug with 'zic -d /a/b/c' when /a is unwritable but the directory /a/b already exists. * Remove zoneinfo2tdf.pl, as it was unused and triggered false malware alarms on some email servers. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
