Bug#523968: clock: Canberra is not in Victoria

[Drew Parsons]

Package: gnome-panel
Version: 2.24.3-1
Severity: normal

When adding Canberra (Australia) as a location in the Gnome panel
clock applet, it is found automatically with timezone "Eastern Time
(Victoria)", or Australia/Melbourne.

But Canberra is located in the Australian Capital Territory, not in
Victoria.  The correct timezone would be "Eastern Time (Australian
Capital Territory)" or Australia/Canberra.  

If that timezone is not available, then "Eastern Time (New South
Wales)", or Australia/Sydney, would be more appropriate.  The
Australian Capital Territory is wholly located within the state of New
South Wales, and is much closer to Sydney than to Melbourne.  The
government of the ACT would coordinate matters such as timezone (that
is, daylight savings time etc) in line with NSW rather than Victoria.
