The Debian PHP maintainers included a patch in the package for Lenny which is causing me some grief. This guy is a lot less restrained in showing his annoyance. ^_^
The patch makes a default timezone "System/Localtime" which, when it is detected, forces PHP to use the OS configured timezone. That part is OK. The problem is the patch also prevents you from getting the real timezone from PHP. The PHP timezone always looks like the hard coded default.
Now this probably won't affect many PHP scripts but I'm not that lucky. A developer using the shared hosting server that I admin, unfortunately does need the the real timezone for his application. Marvelous!
The obvious solution is to compile the Debian PHP package without the patch and I plan to do that tomorrow. Oh Joy!
