I can confirm the bug.

I was expecting to have CLST this sunday 9, but it was CLT. The time was right, but not the timezone.

It didn't happen in Debian Etch. I checked them, and both of them (ubuntu and debian packages) shared the same patch.

I also checked with:
$ zdump -v 'America/Santiago' | grep 2008

According to this, the timezone should be CLST.

However, in Ubuntu was required to run dpkg-reconfigure tzdata.

At that moment, 'America' was not selected. I mean, there were no timezone selected.

After I choose 'America', pressing next I got 'Santiago' (Chile most common locations or so) selected. I pressed ok, and the timezone was fine again (CLST).

Also tried to repackage it using the latest tzdata 2008a (with the right patch for Chile), and it happened the same. It seems there is problem in other part.
