ldesc: "The Time Zone Database (often called tz, tzdb, or zoneinfo) contains
data that represents the history of local time for many locations around
the world, and supports conversion of UTC time to local time at those
locations to allow display of those local times. It is updated
periodically to reflect changes made by political bodies to summer
daylight saving time rules, UTC offsets, and time zone boundaries.
Three data packages are available: base 'tzdata' is always installed;
optional 'tzdata-right' provides TAI-10s time in the 'right' subtree;
and optional 'tzdata-posix' provides the same zones and times as base
data in the 'posix' subtree, as an explicit distinction from 'right'."
