From 5e70140521ac2e5c004de8cd61321d3a51619ae6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alberto Donizetti Date: Thu, 21 Aug 2014 10:35:43 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] time: removed from tests now obsolete assumption about Australian tz abbreviations Australian timezones abbreviation for standard and daylight saving time were recently changed from EST for both to AEST and AEDT in the icann tz database (see changelog on www.iana.org/time-zones). A test in the time package was written to check that the ParseInLocation function understand that Feb EST and Aug EST are different time zones, even though they are both called EST. This is no longer the case, and the Date function now returns AEST or AEDT for australian tz on every Linux system with an up to date tz database (and this makes the test fail). Since I wasn't able to find another country that 1) uses daylight saving and 2) has the same abbreviation for both on tzdata, I changed the test to make sure that ParseInLocation does not get confused when it parses, in different locations, two dates with the same abbreviation (this was suggested in the mailing list). Fixes #8547.
