Title:
  "ETC" section in tzdata is backwards

Status in tzdata package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: tzdata

  with dpkg-reconfigure tzdata I set the timezone to GMT-7 in the ETC
  section and it gives me GMT+7 time.  I set it to GMT+7 and I actually
  get what I want (GMT-7).  The zones for the pluses and minuses are
  backwards.
