I just installed tzdata-2008h-1. No problem.

I didn't get Nathan's email. I just tried the command but it only
returns a list of files, like :

/var/lib/pacman/local/readline-5.2-8/desc
/var/lib/pacman/local/nspr-4.7.1-1/desc
/var/lib/pacman/local/bash-3.2.039-3/desc
/var/lib/pacman/local/kernel-headers-2.6.26.3-1/desc
/var/lib/pacman/local/tzdata-2008h-1/desc
/var/lib/pacman/local/ncurses-5.6-8/desc

and so on. I don't think that is what was expected.
