Dear all,

Any help with the following would be welcome:

$ tzselect
/gnu/store/bpid2k5sjrry3nj7jnhzlm7g01j2mbph-profile/bin/tzselect: line
179:
/gnu/store/ln6hxqjvz6m9gdd9s97pivlqck7hzs99-glibc-2.35/share/zoneinfo/iso3166.tab:
No such file or directory
/gnu/store/bpid2k5sjrry3nj7jnhzlm7g01j2mbph-profile/bin/tzselect: time
zone files are not set up correctly

I seem to be missing iso3166.tab and haven't been able to find it in
any guix package.

Found it - I was missing the TZDIR env variable. Setting the following
fixes my issue:

export TZDIR=/gnu/store/19z4zyx0nykgcmj75izhsbi6z0ascq4i-tzdata-2022a/share/zoneinfo
Does anyone know why the TZDIR variable was set properly on a guix
system, but not on a foreign distro? Is this expected?

Laurent
