tzdata: update to 2016j

2016-12-17T09:57:04+00:00

Briefly: Saratov, Russia moves from +03 to +04 on 2016-12-04. Changes to future time stamps Saratov, Russia switches from +03 to +04 on 2016-12-04 at 02:00. This hives off a new zone Europe/Saratov from Europe/Volgograd. (Thanks to Yuri Konotopov and Stepan Golosunov.) Changes to past time stamps The new zone Asia/Atyrau for Atyraū Region, Kazakhstan, is like Asia/Aqtau except it switched from +05/+06 to +04/+05 in spring 1999, not fall 1994. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Changes to past time zone abbreviations Asia/Gaza and Asia/Hebron now use "EEST", not "EET", to denote summer time before 1948. The old use of "EET" was a typo.

meta: remove True option to getVar calls

2016-12-16T10:23:23+00:00

getVar() now defaults to expanding by default, thus remove the True option from getVar() calls with a regex search and replace. Search made with the following regex: getVar ?\(( ?[^,()]*), True\) (From OE-Core rev: 7c552996597faaee2fbee185b250c0ee30ea3b5f) Signed-off-by: Joshua Lock Signed-off-by: Ross Burton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

tzdata: update to 2016i

2016-11-15T15:19:53+00:00

Briefly: Cyprus split into two time zones on 2016-10-30, and Tonga reintroduces DST on 2016-11-06. Changes to future time stamps Pacific/Tongatapu begins DST on 2016-11-06 at 02:00, ending on 2017-01-15 at 03:00. Assume future observances in Tonga will be from the first Sunday in November through the third Sunday in January, like Fiji. (Thanks to Pulu ʻAnau.) Switch to numeric time zone abbreviations for this zone. Changes to past and future time stamps Northern Cyprus is now +03 year round, causing a split in Cyprus time zones starting 2016-10-30 at 04:00. This creates a zone Asia/Famagusta. (Thanks to Even Scharning and Matt Johnson.) Antarctica/Casey switched from +08 to +11 on 2016-10-22. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.) Changes to past time stamps Several corrections were made for pre-1975 time stamps in Italy. These affect Europe/Malta, Europe/Rome, Europe/San_Marino, and Europe/Vatican. First, the 1893-11-01 00:00 transition in Italy used the new UT offset (+01), not the old (+00:49:56). (Thanks to Michael Deckers.) Second, rules for daylight saving in Italy were changed to agree with Italy's National Institute of Metrological Research (INRiM) except for 1944, as follows (thanks to Pierpaolo Bernardi, Brian Inglis, and Michael Deckers): The 1916-06-03 transition was at 24:00, not 00:00. The 1916-10-01, 1919-10-05, and 1920-09-19 transitions were at 00:00, not 01:00. The 1917-09-30 and 1918-10-06 transitions were at 24:00, not 01:00. The 1944-09-17 transition was at 03:00, not 01:00. This particular change is taken from Italian law as INRiM's table, (which says 02:00) appears to have a typo here. Also, keep the 1944-04-03 transition for Europe/Rome, as Rome was controlled by Germany then. The 1967-1970 and 1972-1974 fallback transitions were at 01:00, not 00:00.
