Nope, definitely:
simon@erdinger:~$ cat /etc/timezone 
Australia/Sydney

tzdata is at:
Version: 2007f-3ubuntu1

But there does seem to be a more recent one in gutsy-updates:
2008a-0ubuntu0.7.10: all

Installing that seems to have worked.

What is gutsy-updates then, and should I have that in my sources.list?
