Subject: Bug Report: Indian standard time zone

Hi,

This is a bug report regarding the old city name in Indian standard time
zone.

This bug is originally reported in Ubuntu, and they suggested me to
report it here.

Here is the original bug report.

>In Gutsy installer, during the select time zone step, If you select
Indian time zone, you will see the city name as "Calcutta". 
>However this is the old name of the city, since then the name of the
city has been changed, and the current name of city is "Kolkata"
>for more info visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolkata
>Please fix this bug for Hardy installer.
Please change the city name accordingly.
