Updating Ubuntu for daylight savings time

Wasim Baig thankfully posted a link to the updated tzdata file that includes the updates for Pakistan Standard Time (PKST). You can get it here:

ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2008c.tar.gz

If you're using Ubuntu Linux, updating the system is a simple procedure, just extract the file for Asia and run zic:

wget ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2008c.tar.gz
tar xzf tzdata2008c.tar.gz asia
zic asia

That'll update the timezone data and you can verify it by checking your system time/date. The timezone will show up as PKST instead of PKT.

This step is no longer required for Ubuntu. They released an update of the "tzdata" package a few days ago which contains this fix.
