Just noticed Jilles' followup, could have saved myself some typing :) >But since this is already written then I am just hitting Send. > The original stab at this is here: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-java/2011-December/009470.html This link has a shar that creates timezone data port, and replaces openjdk6 zi distributed zoneinformation. It uses openjdk as a build dependency. It can be re-worked to install to ${LOCALBASE}/share/java/zoneinfo, and then have other ports link to it post-install. I can rename to something more appropriate like jdk-tzdata.
