8.175. perl-TimeDate

An updated perl-TimeDate package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

perl-TimeDate is a perl library that parses time and date information.

Bug Fix

BZ#993222: Previously, some time zones were missing in the perl-TimeDate package, so the user could not set, for example, the Alaska Standard time zone. Support for the missing time zones has been added to the Time/Zone.pm module, namely the following:
AEDT Eastern Australian Daylight AEST Eastern Australian Standard AKDT Alaska Daylight AKST Alaska Standard METDST Middle European DST MSD Moscow Daylight MSK Moscow
As a result, the list of time zones in Time/Zone.pm is now complete.

Users of perl-TimeDate are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this bug.
