I have to maintain some long-dead distro versions (RH 7.2, RH 8, FC 3)
in order to keep some proprietary software running.
I just downloaded the raw updated zoneinfo files, ran them through
zic, and installed them over the rpm-installed files. crond needs to
be restarted to see the new files -- the same for syslogd and most
other daemons.
Yeah, manual file installation breaks rpm control, but these machines
are all on life support anyway...
