Public bug reported: On 22.04 Jammy with tzdata version 2024a-0ubuntu0.22.04 installed, we have `/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/*` symlinks. On 23.10 Mantic with tzdata version 2024a-0ubuntu0.23.10, we do not. Is this an intentional removal? I don't follow the IANA mailing lists, but I had thought/assumed that "Country/Region" symlinks were being maintained for backward compatibility.
Many tools I use reference multiple timezones (regardless of the system TZ), so it is necessary to have them available. As a temporary workaround, we can make the symlinks manually. ** Affects: tzdata (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2058249 Title: US symlinks missing in /usr/share/zoneinfo To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/+bug/2058249/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
