The test case can be distilled down to: ``` ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/EST /etc/localtime dpkg-reconfigure --frontend noninteractive tzdata ```
On Ubuntu 22.04 (jammy) convert_timezone() in tzdata.config maps EST to America/Indianapolis which is a symlink to America/Indiana/Indianapolis. Bug 1: America/Indianapolis is not an option in debconf and therefore the first geographic area "Adak" is used. Possible bug 2: convert_timezone() in tzdata.config maps EST to America/Indiana/Indianapolis, but EST is not a symlink to America/Indiana/Indianapolis. If I saw that correctly, EST does not take daylight saving into account. ** Summary changed: - timezone changed unexpectedly from EST to America/Adak + timezone changed unexpectedly from EST to America/Adak or America/Indiana/Indianapolis ** Changed in: tzdata (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2055718 Title: timezone changed unexpectedly from EST to America/Adak or America/Indiana/Indianapolis To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/+bug/2055718/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
