dateutil.zoneinfo.gettz() always returns None. Is that how it's
supposed to work?
I think this is a consequence of our removing the zoneinfo data file.
It should probably be patched to use a system copy, but python-dateutil
seems to live without that functionality.
I see that you disabled tests for zoneinfo, which I interpret as a "yes"
answer to my question. Well, I can't see how such behaviour is
useful[0], but at very least it deserves a big red warning in
README.Debian.
[0] Useful behaviour would be e.g.:
- using system-wide timezone database or
- throwing an exception (with an informative message) if user tries to
use the function or even
- not shipping the sub-module at all in the binary package.
