Changelog

tzdata (2009o+repack-0ubuntu0.9.04.1) jaunty-proposed; urgency=low

  * Add bdst-workaround.diff: Work around glibc not being able to cope
with open end dates by specifying an arbitrary one far in the future.
This fixes time Bangladesh, which has eternal DST now. (LP: #456322)

It's currently in 'jaunty-proposed', so ensure that you have that enabled.
