   An update that has one recommended fix can now be installed.

Description:


   This update provides the latest timezone information (2016b) for your
   system, including the following changes:

   - New zones Europe/Astrakhan and Europe/Ulyanovsk for Astrakhan and
     Ulyanovsk Oblasts, Russia, both of which will switch from +03 to +04 on
     2016-03-27 at 02:00 local time.
   - New zone Asia/Barnaul for Altai Krai and Altai Republic, Russia, which
     will switch from +06 to +07 on the same date and local time.
   - Asia/Sakhalin moves from +10 to +11 on 2016-03-27 at 02:00.
   - As a trial of a new system that needs less information to be made up,
     the new zones use numeric time zone abbreviations like "+04" instead of
     invented abbreviations like "ASTT".
   - Haiti will not observe DST in 2016.
   - Palestine's spring-forward transition on 2016-03-26 is at 01:00, not
     00:00.
   - tzselect's diagnostics and checking, and checktab.awk's checking, have
     been improved.
   - tzselect now tests Julian-date TZ settings more accurately.
