I'm running Debian and my current time-zone is set to America/New_York in /etc/timezone, and my /etc/localtime is properly set (it has the same checksum as /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York). I'm trying to lookup the time-zone programmatically using tzlocal which uses pytz internally. I'm getting a weird result though.
>>> import tzlocal
>>> tzlocal.get_localzone()
<DstTzInfo 'America/New_York' LMT-1 day, 19:04:00 STD>
I should be receiving EDT with a -04:00 offset (expressed as a timedelta), not whatever LMT is with a -04:56 offset. I would expect to receive:
<DstTzInfo 'America/New_York' EDT-1 day, 20:00:00 DST>
Why is the offset wrong?
