I've got this Ubuntu server virtual machine. I'm trying to setup a correct time on it.

I've selected a proper timezone (Europe > Moscow) via sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata.

After that, I'm using the following command to synchronize the time: sudo ntpdate 0.ru.pool.ntp.org. However, time is not sets correctly. It's ahead of actual time in Moscow by one hour.

Formally speaking, Moscow time is UTC+4 without DST. However, on 26 of October the Russian government decided to shift time one hour backward.

How do I deal with this situation? Is there a changes in World's time synchronization infrastructure that should be done according to this change?

The routine software update helped to resolve this issue. It looks like new information about time change in Russia were contained in latest tzdata package update.
