Are you up to date on the timezone data files?

  rpm -qi tzdata

You should have version 2005f installed.  If not, do "yum update tzdata".

Indeed, Europe/Ljubljana and Europe/Paris should be identical since
1983 (prior to 1983 the two timezones were not the same).

You can also try running the zdump command to compare them.
For instance on my system with 2005f,

  $ zdump -v Europe/Paris | grep 2005
Europe/Paris  Sun Mar 27 00:59:59 2005 UTC = Sun Mar 27 01:59:59 2005
CET isdst=0 gmtoff=3600
Europe/Paris  Sun Mar 27 01:00:00 2005 UTC = Sun Mar 27 03:00:00 2005
CEST isdst=1 gmtoff=7200
Europe/Paris  Sun Oct 30 00:59:59 2005 UTC = Sun Oct 30 02:59:59 2005
CEST isdst=1 gmtoff=7200
Europe/Paris  Sun Oct 30 01:00:00 2005 UTC = Sun Oct 30 02:00:00 2005
CET isdst=0 gmtoff=3600

  $ zdump -v Europe/Ljubljana | grep 2005
Europe/Ljubljana  Sun Mar 27 00:59:59 2005 UTC = Sun Mar 27 01:59:59
2005 CET isdst=0 gmtoff=3600
Europe/Ljubljana  Sun Mar 27 01:00:00 2005 UTC = Sun Mar 27 03:00:00
2005 CEST isdst=1 gmtoff=7200
Europe/Ljubljana  Sun Oct 30 00:59:59 2005 UTC = Sun Oct 30 02:59:59
2005 CEST isdst=1 gmtoff=7200
Europe/Ljubljana  Sun Oct 30 01:00:00 2005 UTC = Sun Oct 30 02:00:00
2005 CET isdst=0 gmtoff=3600

So they are identical at least for the year 2005.  The important thing is
the "gmtoff" value.
