The file... ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2006l.tar.gz ...is now available; it reflects Paul's best-effort work on this coming weekend's Egypt time change.
no tzcode2000l.tar.gz ?
No. In fact this is supposed to be rather usual: updates in the timezone data and no update on the code Despite the fact that the last releases all had tzdata *and* tzcode :)
alrighty, 2006l in portage then ... thanks for the heads up
