2.17 2018-01-23
- This release is based on version 2018b of the Olson database. This release
reverts the changes for Ireland in the previous versions as these caused
breakages in some systems that consumed the IANA time zone data.

- This release is based on version 2018b of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for S瓊o Tom矇 and Pr穩ncipe, Brazil, and
Ireland. The 2018a was skipped because it was missing a file, but there are
no data changes from 2018a to 2018b.
2.15 2017-11-04
- Make the local zone lookup code handle the case where /usr/share/zoneinfo is
a symlink, as it apparently is on recent versions of macOS (10.13). Fixed by
Tom Wyant. GH #22 and #23.
2.14 2017-10-28

2.13 2017-06-01

kidding. Thanks to Grinnz on #metacpan for giving me the solution.
2.12 2017-06-01
- Attempting to fix indexing of DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog on metacpan
again. No real code or zone changes. Reported by Greg Oscwhald. GH #19.

Upstream changes:
2.06 2016-10-20
- This release is based on version 2016h of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Palestine.
2.04 2016-09-26
- Automatically add the latest version of DateTime::Time::Local::Win32 as a
prereqs on Windows system automatically when building the release.
2.01 2016-07-17
- This release is based on version 2016f of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Egypt and Russia. The changes for Egypt
supersede the ones in 2016e.
2.00 2016-06-07
- The fix in 1.99 broke the parsing of the etcetera zones, which are specified
as 1 or 2 digit offsets in hours, unlike all other zones which are written
as "1:00" or "-2:00".
1.99 2016-06-07
- When parsing the POSIX zones in the etcetera file, don't special case the
ETC[+-]NN zones. These are weirdly named, as ETC+8 is 8 hours _behind_ UTC,
and -6 is 6 hours _ahead_. Previously, we were swapping these so the name
matched the sane usage, but this is confusing for anyone who is explicitly
trying to use the POSIX names, expecting the bizarre (but POSIXly correct)
interpretation. Patch by Bron Gondwana. GitHub PR #7.
1.97 2016-03-23
- This release is based on version 2016c of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Azerbaijan and Chile.
1.96 2016-03-15

Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
1.94 2015-10-21
- This release is based on version 2015g of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Turkey, Norfolk, Fiji, and Fort Nelson.
1.93 2015-08-11
- This release is based on version 2015f of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Moldova, North Korea, and Uruguay.
1.92 2015-06-22
- This distro now depends on DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32 when it is being
installed on a Windows OS. This should lead to a better experience for
Windows users. Requested by Matthew Horsfall and Karen Etheridge. RT
#103275.
1.91 2015-06-13
- This release is based on version 2015e of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Morocco and Cayman Islands.
1.90 2015-05-14
- Made the compilation test shipped in the last release an author-only test,
as many of the modules in this distribution try to load DateTime, but
DateTime depends on this distribution. This caused attempts to install
DateTime on a fresh perl install to fail. Reported by Noel Maddy. RT
#104448.
1.89 2015-05-14
- Fix a syntax error in the Android local time zone module. Reported by Gregor
Hermann. RT #104105.
1.87 2015-04-20
- This release is based on version 2015c of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Egypt, though it looks like those will
change again soon.
1.84 2015-01-17
- Removed the per-OS prereqs on DateTime::TimeZone::HPUX and
DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32. This gets rid of circular dependencies
between those distros and this one. RT #101588, 101589 and 68231.
1.83 2014-12-24
- The last release did not include any of the generated zone files. Oops.
- Attempting to fix indexing of DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog on metacpan. No
real code or zone changes.
1.82 2014-12-24
- Various changes to get tests passing and tools code working with blead. This
includes fixing some "Redundant argument in sprintf" warnings that could
occur in the DateTime test suite. Reported by Slaven Rezic. RT #10116.
1.80 2014-11-16
- This distro no longer ships the DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32
module. Instead, it depends on that module when you install
DateTime::TimeZone on a Windows system machine.
- Tweaked the warning when loading a zone class from disk that was generated
using a different Olson version than the current DateTime::TimeZone
module. Previously, it said the loaded version was older, but all we know is
that it's different. Reported by Karen Etheridge. RT #66097.
1.78 2014-11-05
- Fix warnings from Perl 5.8.8 and before. Apparently it doesn't like when
$SIG{__DIE__} is set to undef. Patch by Peter Rabbitson. GitHub PR #88.
1.77 2014-11-04
- Updated the mapping of Windows -> IANA time zones. Patch by David
Pinkowitz. RT #10025.
- Replaced Class::Load with Module::Runtime, and replaced eval with Try::Tiny.
1.76 2014-10-26
- When searching for the local timezone we now look at /etc/timezone before
/etc/localtime. The former is a much quicker check if it exists. Patch by
Karen Etheridge. PR #3.
- The tools/parse_olson script now supports parsing the etcetera and systemv
files. This is *not* enabled by default as it would generate zones that
conflict with existing links for Etc/UTC and others. Patch by Alfie John. PR
#1.
1.74 2014-08-30
- This release is based on version 2014g of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Turks & Caicos.
- Fixed a bug when trying to get the local timezone by looking at
/etc/sysconfig/clock. Patch by Alexey Molchanov. GitHub PR #2.
1.73 2014-08-06
- This release is based on version 2014f of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Russia and Australia.
1.72 2014-08-03

Fraser. RT #97711.
- The primary repo for this distro is now on GitHub.

1.71 2014-06-21
- This release is based on version 2014e of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Egypt and Morocco.
1.70 2014-06-01
- Unset $ENV{TZ} in t/04local..t test to avoid interference from
system. Reported by Mark Gardner. RT #96083.
- This release is based on version 2014d of the IANA database, but there are
no data changes from 2014c.
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
Upstream changes:
1.69 2014-05-13
- Don't run tests for Unix on non-Unix boxes.
1.68 2014-05-13
- The last release was missing some test changes I made on another
machine. Doh.
1.67 2014-05-13
- I accidentally skipped 1.66, don't read anything into the 0.02 version bump
here.
- This release is based on version 2014c of the IANA database (I skipped 2014b
for lack of debuggint time). This release includes contemporary changes for
Crimea and Troll Station, Antarctica from 2014b and contemporary changes for
Egypt from 2014c.
1.65 2014-03-09
- This release is based on version 2014a of the Olson database. This release
includes contemporary changes for Turkey.
1.64 2014-02-07
- Under taint mode, DateTime::TimeZone->new( name => 'local' ) could die
depending on the method used to find the local time zone name. The resulting
variable would often be tainted. We now untaint all names before attempting
to load them. Reported by Stevie-O. RT #92631.
