In addition to those changes, the tzdata distribution now includes
a copy of the Makefile from the tzcode distribution. NetBSD's
src/share/zoneinfo/Makefile is completely different from the Makefile
that is now included in the tzdata distribution.
Major changes from tzdata2012d to tzdata2012e:
* australasia (Pacific/Fakaofo): Tokelau is UTC+13, not UTC+14.
(Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
* Use a single version number for both code and data.

Major changes from tzdata2011b to tzdata2011c:
africa
Summer time changes for Morocco (to start late April 2012)
asia
Changes for 2012 for Gaza & the West Bank (Hebron) and Syria
northamerica
Haiti following US/Canada rules for 2012 (and we're assuming,
for now anyway, for the future).
Major changes from tzdata2011c to tzdata2011d:
Morocco does not observe DST from Jul 20 03:00 to
Aug 20 02:00 [2012].
Infrastructure changes to accommodate how the tz
code and data are released on IANA.
Changes since tzdata2012a:
Most significantly, summer time in Cuba has been delayed 3 weeks
(now starts April 1 rather than March 11). Since Mar 11 (the old
start date, as listed in 2012a) is just a little over a week away,
this change is urgent.
Less importantly, an excess tab in one of the changes in zone.tab
in 2012a has been removed.
Major changes since tzdata2011n:
Chile 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 summer time date adjustments.
Falkland Islands onto permanent summer time (we're assuming for the
foreseeable future, though 2012 is all we're fairly certain of.)
Armenia has abolished Summer Time.
Tokelau jumped the International Date Line back last December
(just the same as their near neighbour, Samoa).
America/Creston is a new zone for a small area of British Columbia
There will be a leapsecond 2012-06-30 23:59:60 UTC.
There are three changes of note - most urgently, Cuba (America/Havana)
has extended summer time by two weeks, now to end on Nov 13, rather than
the (already past) Oct 30. Second, the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic
(Europe/Tiraspol) decided not to split from the rest of Moldova after
all, and consequently that zone has been removed (again) and reinstated
in the "backward" file as a link to Europe/Chisinau. And third, the
end date for Fiji's summer time this summer was moved forward from the
earlier planned Feb 26, to Jan 22.
The executive summary:
europe Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (Europe/Tiraspol)
has followed much of Russia, and will retain "summer time"
year round (that is no time transition is due Oct 30).
This reintroduces a zone that had earlier been removed,
and so removes the "backward" link.
On the other hand, Ukraine have decided not to follow,
so the change which had been made in preparation for
that in tzdata2011k is now reverted, and there will be
a transition on Oct 30.
southamerica
The change to Bahia, Brazil, that introduced summer time
(following the regular Brazil rules, so commencing this
year on Oct 16 - last SUnday) that was mooted before
tzdata2011l was released, but withdrawn becase the
change was not yet official, has now been ratified.
This release was prepared by Robert Elz after a lawsuit
caused Arthur Olson to shut down the tz mailing list and the
FTP site at ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/
Notable changes:
* Change in the end date for daylight savings time in Asia/Hebron (West Bank).
* Change in daylight savings time rules for Fiji.
Notable changes:
* New time zone Asia/Hebron (West Bank), which no longer
follows the same rules as Asia/Gaza (Gaza Strip).
* Several Eastern European countries abolish
daylight svings time and move from +02:00 to +03:00.
when installing hard links. They have no effect except when using a
metalog, in which case the information is added to the metalog. In
the future, these variables may be replaced by a method for explicitly
recording hard links in a metadata log.
Also change a few things that called ${INSTALL_LINK} without going
through bsd.links.mk.
