Title:
  Chile Summer Time CLST Transition Delay Not Updated

Status in tzdata package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The transition from CLST to CLT was historically made each second
  Saturday of March, and from CLT to CLST each second Satuday of
  October.

  Today times were automatically updated according to this, but since
  2010, official time has been changed and updated according to
  different decrees (see http://www.horaoficial.cl/cambio.htm, which
  holds official time information and the new dates for this year).

  Translating the information, for this year:

  Start of 2012 Winter Time:

  According to Supreme Decree #225, from February, 27th 2012, from
  "Ministerio del Interior":

  a. For continental and Chilean Antarctic Territory.

  On April, 28th 2012, at 24.00 hours, time will be delayed to 23.00
  hours of the same date. (CLST  -> CLT)

  b. Easter Island and Salas y Gómez Islands

  On April, 28th 2012, at 22.00 hours, time will be delayed to 21.00
  hours of the same date. (GMT -5 -> GMT -6)

  This will aplied until September, 1st 2012. Usually (this doesn't
  appear on the website) on that that, at 24.00 hours time will be
  updated to 01.00 hours of the following date.
