Hi
A new version of 'tzcode/tzdata' has been uploaded to a server near you.
DESCRIPTION:
============
The time zone package
CYGWIN NEWS:
============
* compiled with cygwin-1.5.7
* man pages are now in /usr/share/man
* fixed some mkdir warnings during installation
* added missing requires: gawk pdksh
* removed tz-date.exe and tz-date.1 as /usr/bin/date now (since cygwin-1.5.7)
handles the new timezone format (e.g.: TZ=Europe/Berlin)
There is a script tzselect in /usr/sbin which asks the user about the time zone,
and output the resulting TZ value to stdout.
* removed libtz.a since the functionality is included in cygwin
* moved /usr/share/zoneinfo-leaps to /usr/share/zoneinfo/right and
/usr/share/zoneinfo-posix to /usr/share/zoneinfo/posix as on Linux
tzcode/tzdata NEWS
==================
* Sorry no changelog available. You have to do the diff yourself.
INSTALLATION:
=============
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your
system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up
the above mentioned package from the 'System' category.
DOWNLOAD:
=========
Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't
allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need
to find a mirror which has this update.
These mirrors already got the package, the others will probably have
the latest version of this package fairly soon:
In the US
ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/pub/sourceware/cygwin/
has reliable high bandwidth connections.
QUESTIONS:
==========
If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing
list is the appropriate place.
