tzdata gone mad?
       Thursday May 17  8:55:09 2012
       
       Somehow my local clock went mad after playing with a live gnome 3.4
       usb image I downloaded from their official site (Fedora based). No
       matter what I did I couldn't set it correctly again. 
       
       Back to my regular debian installation (wheezy) I still wasn't able
       to set the clock to the right time. I have had to 
       reconfigure tzdata to Australia/Perth to get my local time. I'm in
       Spain :(
       
       chals@aelita:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
       
       Current default time zone: 'Australia/Perth'
       Local time is now:      Fri May 18 10:44:59 WST 2012.
       Universal Time is now:  Fri May 18 02:44:59 UTC 2012.
       
       Before I got (once and again for several days):
       
       chals@aelita:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
       
       Current default time zone: 'Europe/Madrid'
       Local time is now:      Fri May 18 04:34:39 CEST 2012.
       Universal Time is now:  Fri May 18 02:34:39 UTC 2012.
       
       or
       
       chals@aelita:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
       
       Current default time zone: 'Europe/Andorra'
       Local time is now:      Fri May 18 04:35:14 CEST 2012.
       Universal Time is now:  Fri May 18 02:35:14 UTC 2012.
       
       a bug in ntp? or am I missing something about timezones?
       
       (Reminder: I'm completely against the fact that only root can set the
       time on a system) 
       
       
       UPDATE (05-18-12):
       
       The "suspected" bug on ntp seemed to exist (even though I didn't
       check the bts) because I upgraded ntp and now it works fine. Thanks
       guys for fixing it.
