# 
I would like to request access to bugzilla to file a bug report on make
check for R-devel.

Following changes to all.equal.POSIXt,
  make check
now reports an error if the environment variable TZ is set to
  TZ="US/Eastern"
(and likely other values). This can be addressed by using the argument
check.tzone=FALSE in the call to all.equal.POSIXt in reg-tests-2.R. A patch
has been posted by Sebastian Meyer in the R-devel thread "timezone tests
and R-devel".

Dear Kasper,

if you want to submit a bug via bugzilla, please first read

https://www.r-project.org/bugs.html

and you will learn there that there is an email address to use when 
asking for an account, not all R-devel mailing list readers need to read 
that.

Moreover, I can see you already have an account in R bugzilla.

Moreover, bugs can be reported also on R-devel mailing list and this has 
been reported already several times, we are working on it, it is not 
clear what is the right way to fix this.

Thanks for your patience,
Tomas

Thanks, I'm going to shut up then.

Despite having been reported multiple times, it was not at all clear to me
that this was being worked on with the intention of addressing make check -
that is one of the limitations of the communication system we use.

Best,
Kasper
