Title:
  Wrong DST dates in Israel

Status in “tzdata” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “tzdata” source package in Lucid:
  Triaged
Status in “tzdata” source package in Precise:
  In Progress
Status in “tzdata” source package in Quantal:
  In Progress
Status in “tzdata” source package in Raring:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  DST start/end times were changed during 2013, DST should only end in
  more than a month from the actual change happened.

  In order to solve this bug the tzdata package should be updated to the
  most recent version (currently tzdata 2013d-1) which contains the fix.

  Please notice the tzdata has no dependencies but tzdata-java which
  also needs to be updated (both versions are already updated in Debian
  testing).

  This is pretty urgent, releases not affected:
  Saucy Salamander (13.10), all others are affected.

  The change is described in the following diff:

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/146460855/tzdata_2013c-2ubuntu1_2013d-1ubuntu1.diff.gz

  The updated packages from Debian were installed in my personal system
  (12.04) and nothing seems broken so far, the package deployment was
  successful.


  SRU Template starts here:
  [Impact]

   * DST ends prematurely causing Ubuntu systems to work with a 1 hour
  diff, the actual change should take place on October 27th.

   * tzdata was updated accordingly, time difference could cause many
  issues.

   * tzdata was changes this June, fix was included in this release by
  Ephraim Silverberg  on 2013-06-27.

  [Test Case]

   * All of the affected systems are one hour behind.

  [Regression Potential]

   * This change could possibly solve other issues as well (regarding
  different timezone changes around the world).

   * I only have 12.04 system so I checked the packages on my system and
  nothing is broken AFAICT.

   * Please notice tzdata and tzdata-java are dependent of one another
  but besides that they have no other dependencies.

  [Other Info]

   * Anything else you think is useful to include
   * Anticipate questions from users, SRU, +1 maintenance, security teams
and the Technical Board
   * and address these questions in advance
