Timezone change for Argentina

[Margarita Manterola]

HI!

Argentina's government decided to change the timezone with 3 days of
anticipation.

I submitted bug 457938, and Clint Adams provided a patch and did an
upload of the changed package to unstable.

I have applied the same patch to the package in Etch (which is
currently the same as the one in volatile) and I have prepared a
package which I tested and is working fine.

The package can currently be downloaded from:
deb http://www.marga.com.ar/~marga/debian/packages/tzdata ./

I'm attaching the interdiff output between -1etch1 and -1etch2 (the one I made).

Please tell me how to proceed to include the package in volatile.

Thanks!

Please go ahead and upload. After that we need to prepare a VUA.
Take
http://lists.debian.org/debian-volatile-announce/debian-volatile-announce-2007/msg00014.html
as example.

Greetings
Martin
