I patched my Linux box for the Daylight Saving Time using the following steps (for EST/EDT timezone):

1. wget 'ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2007c.tar.gz'
2. tar -xzvf tzdata2007c.tar.gz
3. zic -d zoneinfo northamerica
4. cd zoneinfo
5. cp -r * /usr/share/zoneinfo/
6. ln -fs /usr/share/zoneinfo/EST5EDT /etc/localtime
