[Bug 1499472] [NEW] Wrong local time in tzdata

[mikewhatever]

Public bug reported:

When running the following, I get the correct time zone, but incorrect
local time:

~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

Current default time zone: 'Asia/Jerusalem'
Local time is now:      Thu Sep 24 22:20:38 IDT 2015.
Universal Time is now:  Thu Sep 24 19:20:38 UTC 2015.

The correct local time is, in fact, 20:20, so, apparently, the current
version of tzdata in Precise is way off.
