Is this really a bug in timezones ? It seems quite similar to the problem I have myself (as the maintainer - never heard of anyone else speaking on this) while upgrading e2fsprogs to 1.10-9. I thought it might have been a bug in dpkg's dependency mechanism; I guess I reported that, but can't find out a copy in my folders, neither can I find it from the headers in "Unanswered pbs"...
