Hello. Unfortunately, these are completely different time zones. 1. As i see America/Indiana/Indianapolis has DST. 2. Time zones tied to a location can change their time zone according to the decision of the authorities. For use cases on servers, these are quite significant differences.
>From my point of view, the script should not automatically convert common >timezones (UTC, EST, GMT+0, Greenwich, ...) into geographic ones. But we can ask the user in interactive tui if he wants to perform such a conversion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to tzdata in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2055718 Title: timezone changed unexpectedly from EST to America/Adak or America/Indiana/Indianapolis Status in tzdata package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: A user reported this regression on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/+bug/2052739: UPDATE: I don't think it's a regression anymore, see comment #5 """ Hello. After automatic upgrade of tzdata from 2023c-0ubuntu0.22.04.2 to 2024a-0ubuntu0.22.04 the previously set EST time zone was automatically changed to "America/Adak" or "America/Indiana/Indianapolis" on all our servers (50+).
