tzcode: update to 2017b

2017-03-27T07:15:06+00:00

Briefly: Haiti has resumed DST. Changes to past and future time stamps Haiti resumed observance of DST in 2017. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Changes to past time stamps Liberia changed from -004430 to +00 on 1972-01-07, not 1972-05-01. Use "MMT" to abbreviate Liberia's time zone before 1972, as "-004430" is one byte over the POSIX limit. (Problem reported by Derick Rethans.) (From OE-Core rev: 70ff7cfa8a7ffb537da19aeca026032bab55a00d) Signed-off-by: Armin Kuster Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

tzcode-native: Set cc to ${CC}

2017-03-10T14:50:11+00:00

Building on a system without "cc" showed this recipe doesn't respect the $CC variable. Fix this by passing the right option to the makefile. (From OE-Core rev: 402080c0a77443f541fa3d658b79f3fba327279d) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

tzcode-native: update to 2017a

Changes to code zic no longer mishandles some transitions in January 2038 when it attempts to work around Qt bug 53071. This fixes a bug affecting Pacific/Tongatapu that was introduced in zic 2016e. localtime.c now contains a workaround, useful when loading a file generated by a buggy zic. (Problem and localtime.c fix reported by Bradley White.) zdump -i now outputs non-hour numeric time zone abbreviations without a colon, e.g., "+0530" rather than "+05:30". This agrees with zic %z and with common practice, and simplifies auditing of zdump output. zdump is now buildable again with -DUSE_LTZ=0. (Problem reported by Joseph Myers.) zdump.c now always includes private.h, to avoid code duplication with private.h. (Problem reported by Kees Dekker.) localtime.c no longer mishandles early or late timestamps when TZ is set to a POSIX-style string that specifies DST. (Problem reported by Kees Dekker.) 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 "-". Changes to documentation and commentary The 'Theory' file now better documents choice of historical time zone abbreviations. (Problems reported by Michael Deckers.) tz-link.htm now covers leap smearing, which is popular in clouds.
