Public bug reported:

On 22.04 Jammy with tzdata version 2024a-0ubuntu0.22.04 installed, we
have `/usr/share/zoneinfo/US/*` symlinks. On 23.10 Mantic with tzdata
version 2024a-0ubuntu0.23.10, we do not. Is this an intentional removal?
I don't follow the IANA mailing lists, but I had thought/assumed that
"Country/Region" symlinks were being maintained for backward
compatibility.

Many tools I use reference multiple timezones (regardless of the system
TZ), so it is necessary to have them available. As a temporary
workaround, we can make the symlinks manually.
