I do not see why we have to install patches to change daylight saving.
It should be like it was on my Cisco router - just a change to the
daylight saving setting, a simple adjustment of the numbers.  Sure,
the Windows users probably need Microsoft to hand feed them a patch,
but even there, there should be the option to just change some
settings.  And surely in the Linux world, having to download a patch
is a bit extreme.  I was very surprised to find that there was not a
simple setting in etc to change.
