Accordind http://www.b4net.lt/%7Emgedmin/ltz/index-en.html lithuanian time zone must be EEST, but on last stable libc 2.3.2-r1 we have EET. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.install gentoo 2.ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Vilnius /etc/localtime 3.date Actual Results: Sat Jul 26 02:13:59 EET 2003 Expected Results: Sat Jul 26 02:13:59 EEST 2003 none
Created attachment 16289 [details] lithuanian timezone file and source There is a correct lithuanian (Europe/Vilnius) timezone file with source and description, shamessly copied from the given URL (http://mg.b4net.lt/ltz/index-en.html).
sorry this can't be a blocker
It can be. p.s. simply situation: reading gentoo install inctruction && instaling gentoo. when user == local == lt -> system timezone && time is incorect.

sorry wrong bug id
please do something
If this is a blocker, then what bugids is it blocking? They should be listed in the 'bug 25286 blocks' section, right above the additional comments block. That is, unless gentoo is not using bugzilla in the manner in which it is intended to be used - normally, blocker is only for those bugs that block another bug, and frequently only if that other bug is either high priority or critical. My experience is that bugs which are politically misclassified tend to be worked on at a much slower pace than they otherwise would be - the workers *know* that the bug isn't that important, and therefore they ignore it. But when they get to working on stuff of the importance level that it is, they don't realize it; they've forgotten about it other than their subconscious block. Note that it has apparently been fixed, as of the latest gentoo release. This bug should probably be closed, so that those of us who are actually interested in helping out can find what bugs there actually are to work on.
the meaning of the severity differs widely from user/dev it's more of a field that the developer may or may not use to prioritize their own workload personally, i never use Priority or Severity ... never have looked at the things, never will ;)
could you define 'the latest gentoo release' ? what version of glibc ? does glibc-2.3.2-r9 fix it ?
I am currently in the process of installing gentoo linux for the first time. (Given that I'm a pedant, especially about my Linux installs, it's going to take a while. It normally does.) The files were most likely from the stage file, ftp://oss.redundant.com/pub/gentoo/releases/x86/1.4/stages/x86/stage1-x86-20030910.tar.bz2. (I'm sure other locations have the same data. I'm only giving the full url to be exacting in my specification of exactly what I'm using. I am, after all, a pedant.) glibc has nothing to do with it; if it did, then everyone would be complaining about daylight savings time not working. It's the zoneinfo file (/usr/share/zoneinfo/EET); this is part of the stage file. Actually, given that it is in the stage file, I don't know how this file would update for regular gentoo users, unless it's handled by the general update feature.
