Comment 0 for bug 2039739

Brief Description
-----------------
The current tzdata / leap-second files have an expiry of Dec 28, 2023. This launchpad tracks updating to a newer version of the files w/ expiry of Jun 2024.

Note: The leap-second file was previously updated as part:
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/2015272
- https://bugs.launchpad.net/starlingx/+bug/1995645

Leap second announcement: https://datacenter.iers.org/data/latestVersion/16_BULLETIN_C16.txt

At this time, there is no new tzdata package that includes an updated leap-second file, so the proposal is to patch the existing file.
