The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
I've got several machines that I need to update for the new daylight saving time dates that are coming around this year. There are rpms that you can find out there which will supposedly update all the correct files for you.
The only problem is, when I run the correct rpm, (tzdata-2005r-3.fc3.noarch.rpm is the latest version they made for core 3) nothing seems to change on the box.
I issue the command
rpm -i tzdata-2005r-3.fc3.noarch.rpm
to install the rpm. I've used the --force option to no avail.
The command
zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2007
shows the dates of the next scheduled time change on your computer. The dates stay at April 1 for this upcoming time change. The localtime file doesn't seem to be getting changed at all when I install the new rpm. What the heck?
Okay, so it looks like the correct file under /usr/share/zoneinfo is getting updated, but I thought /etc/localtime was the one that actually gets looked at. Dunno if this is working properly or not.
