Description aoki 1998-11-09 08:10:01 UTC

Fix: 

delete that description.
How-To-Repeat: execute /stand/sysinstall, choose configure, choose time zone,
select a region to ASIA, then choose Japan.

Then there are two items
              1  most locations
              2  south Ryukyu Islands
Currently, Japan has only one time zone. Maybe someone is
misunderstanding that some southern islands of Japan belongs
to another time zone, but it is incorrect

This very topic has jsut come oup in the tz mailing-list.  When 
a resolution comes, I'll see about integrating the latest database. 
(We're somewhat out-of-date and need to do that anyway.)

I've always done this. 

Comment 3 Hideyuki Suzuki 1999-02-02 02:12:35 UTC
Now this problem is fixed in tzdata1999b.
We may need to import this into 4.0-current and 3.0-stable branches.

Japanese timezone data updated in tzdata1999b.  Awaiting merge for stable. 

Comment 5 Hideyuki Suzuki 1999-02-06 11:09:28 UTC
I would like this to be merged into stable before 3.1-RELEASE.
Is it possible?

Possible, yes, but you'll have to find some other committer actually
test it and do the merge.  I'm tapped out for time right now.

This vendor branch MFC is up for grabs to the brave. :-)

This should be fixed in recent versions of FreeBSD - we now 
have a more recent tzdata database. Thanks!
