As the original report indicated, debain/postinst attempts to install
the timezone data, it just does so incorrectly. Specifically, the
mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo/ 21 command needs to have
the name of the database to be updated (mysql), as in
mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo/
DOH! It's not quite as easy as that - the database name doesn't go on
mysql_tzinfo_to_sql, it normally goes on the mysql command the zone
info is piped to, but debian/postinst uses mysqld --bootstrap and that
doesn't have a database name. So maybe this can't actually be fixed,
because postinst
