2022-08-30 09:16:47 Simon Chopin summary Availability of tzdata 2022c for Ubuntu 20.04 [FFe] tzdata 2022c update
2022-08-30 09:19:27 Simon Chopin description tzdata 2022b and 2022c were just released that includes some timezone changes for Chile. According to the tzdata lib listed for Ubuntu 20.04, the latest package is 2022a. Any idea when 2022b or 2022c will be available? Chile made a change to the start of their daylight savings and pushed it from Sept 4th to the 11th, so we really need our servers updated before the 4th. Thanks Jason New timezone data, with the following timezones impacted: - Chile will spring forward on 2022-09-11, not 2022-09-04 (America/Santiago) - Iran no longer observes DST (Asia/Tehran) Verification is done with 'zdump'. The first timezone that gets changed in the updated package is dumped with 'zdump -v $region/$timezone_that_changed' (this needs to be greped for in /usr/share/zoneinfo/). [For example: 'zdump -v Asia/Gaza'.] This is compared to the same output after the updated package got installed. If those are different the verification is considered done. [Test Case for all releases] 1) zdump -v America/Santiago | grep 'Sep.*2022' -> should indicate Sep 11, not Sep 4 2) zdump -v Asia/Tehran | tail -> last dates should be in 2022, not in 2499 [Test Case for releases >= 20.04 LTS] For releases with ICU timezone data verification is done using the following with dates before and after the change: 1) sudo apt-get install python3-icu 2) Run the following python script: from datetime import datetime from icu import ICUtzinfo, TimeZone tz = ICUtzinfo(TimeZone.createTimeZone("America/Santiago")) always_before = datetime(2022, 9, 1) now_before = datetime(2022, 9, 8) always_after = datetime(2022, 9, 12) assert(tz.utcoffset(always_before) == tz.utcoffset(now_before)) assert(tz.utcoffset(now_before) != tz.utcoffset(always_after)) The assertions would crash on 2022a. [Test Case for releases <= 20.04 LTS] Additionally, an upstream update of tzdata removed the 'old' SystemV timezones, so we should ensure that they are kept in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and earlier releases. Subsequently, these should be checked for using the following: diff <(zdump -v America/Phoenix | cut -d' ' -f2-) <(zdump -v SystemV/MST7 | cut -d' ' -f2-) Nothing should be returned by the above command. [Original report] tzdata 2022b and 2022c were just released that includes some timezone changes for Chile. According to the tzdata lib listed for Ubuntu 20.04, the latest package is 2022a. Any idea when 2022b or 2022c will be available? Chile made a change to the start of their daylight savings and pushed it from Sept 4th to the 11th, so we really need our servers updated before the 4th. Thanks Jason
