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.
