Release Notes
Briefly:
Fiji starts DST later than usual, on 2020-12-20.
Changes to future timestamps
Fiji will start DST on 2020-12-20, instead of 2020-11-08 as
previously predicted. DST will still end on 2021-01-17.
(Thanks to Raymond Kumar and Alan Mintz.) Assume for now that
the later-than-usual start date is a one-time departure from the
recent pattern.
Changes to build procedure
Rearguard tarballs now contain an empty file pacificnew.
Some older downstream software expects this file to exist.
(Problem reported by Mike Cullinan.)
