The first switch after the change is expected to take place on last Friday of April. The upstream tzdata 2023a release already reflects this change. The 2023a release contains the following changes: * Egypt now uses DST again, from April through October. * This year Morocco springs forward April 23, not April 30. * Palestine delays the start of DST this year. * Much of Greenland still uses DST from 2024 on. [ Test Plan ] * Set system timezone to Egypt (e.g. Africa/Cairo). * Set system time to 2023-04-27 23:59. * Wait and observe what happens at 2023-04-28 0:00 [ Where problems could occur ] * Systems with incorrect timezone set (e.g. located outside of Egypt but still using Egyptian time) may observe unexpected time shift. [ Other Info ] * More information with sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time_in_Egypt#:~:text=Daylight%20saving%20time%20(DST)%20has,(DST)%20as%20of%202023. The SRUs to the stable include the recent changes for generating the debconf template and the timezone mappings in convert_timezone(). Previous SRUs did forget to update them for the changes from upstream. All added tests were also backported.
