Bug description:
New upstream version, affecting the following future timestamps:
- Fiji starts DST later than usual, on 2020-12-20.
- Palestine ends DST earlier than predicted, on 2020-10-24.
- Revised predictions for Morocco's changes starting in 2023.
- Canada's Yukon changes to -07 on 2020-11-01, not 2020-03-08.
- Macquarie Island has stayed in sync with Tasmania since 2011.
- Casey, Antarctica is at +08 in winter and +11 in summer since 2018.
Additionally, upstream removed the "old" SystemV timezones, but the
SRU will ensure that they are kept. Subsequently, these should be
checked for using the following:
zdump -v SystemV/MST7
zdump -v America/Phoenix
The information returned by SystemV/MST7 should be included in
America/Phoenix's output.
Verification is done with 'zdump'. The first timezone that gets
changed in the updated package is dumped with "zdump -v
$region/$timezone_that_changed" (this needed to be greped for in
/usr/share/zoneinfo/). [For example: "zdump -v Africa/Casablanca".]
This is compared to the same output after the updated package got
installed. If those are different the verification is considered done.
