I am having a problem updating my timezone data.
Here is an example.
# rpm -q tzdata
tzdata-2005m-1.fc4
# rpm -U --allfiles --force tzdata-2006g-1.fc4.src.rpm
# rpm -q tzdata
tzdata-2005m-1.fc4
And the files in /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/
are unchanged.
Thanks for your help.
Mike.
Yeah, uh, you installed the source RPM, which means that the files got
dumped in /usr/src/redhat/ for you to be able to build a binary RPM.
This will not update the binary timezone files until you build the
binary RPM and install it. However, I have several Fc4 boxes that
didn't need the timezone update, it was already updated.
