Hello,

Updating with the given zoneinfo [Asia/Dhaka] datafile changing
nothing but the time initial BDT to BDST.


I've tried to edit the earlier data file [tzdata2009i.tar.gz] and with
little change found following:
$zdump -v /etc/localtime | grep 2009
/etc/localtime  Fri Jun 19 16:59:59 2009 UTC = Fri Jun 19 22:59:59
2009 BDT isdst=0 gmtoff=21600
/etc/localtime  Fri Jun 19 17:00:00 2009 UTC = Sat Jun 20 00:00:00
2009 BDST isdst=1 gmtoff=25200
/etc/localtime  Tue Sep 29 16:59:59 2009 UTC = Tue Sep 29 23:59:59
2009 BDST isdst=1 gmtoff=25200
/etc/localtime  Tue Sep 29 17:00:00 2009 UTC = Tue Sep 29 23:00:00
2009 BDT isdst=0 gmtoff=21600

#Here is the  tzdata/asia file

                        6:00    Bang    BD%sT
