if ('Riyadh8' in self.zonename or
# From tzdata NEWS file:
# The files solar87, solar88, and solar89 are no longer distributed.
# They were a negative experiment - that is, a demonstration that
# tz data can represent solar time only with some difficulty and error.
# Their presence in the distribution caused confusion, as Riyadh
# civil time was generally not solar time in those years.
self.zonename.startswith('right/')):
and:
> # Iran had a sub-minute UTC offset before 1946.
