Thanks for your report.

There are many "short read" and "corrupted filesystem tarfile" this is
due to either a corrupted archive (problems occured during download, bad
media, ...) or a corrupted filesystem .

Can you please open a terminal try the following:
$ sudo apt-get clean
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install tzdata

You may also have to finish the previous failed install with :
$ sudo apt-get upgrade

Tell us if it works. Thanks in advance.


** Changed in: tzdata (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
