tzfile: where can I download?


Hi,

This my first intro post, else I would have searched the site before I dared post this question. One must post to get privs; it seems.

I Googled and got many hits about modules in various languages that use tzfile (the timezone file) but nothing about where to download a new one without downloading a whole new distro. I've got the one that shipped with Red Hat 9, which has obsolete DST dates.

Yes, I should get a newer distro, but I have a very old P3 box with little memory or disk, and I'm afraid the newer ones are too big, and the old one works fine for me except for the tzfile.

Thanks,
sylvan

I wouldn't have thought that would stop searches - try this thread. The name of the package will be different, but just get the latest from the site.
