[Bug 1052613] [NEW] tzdata-java update breaks timezones

[Andy O'Neill]

Public bug reported:

After recent apt dist-upgrade my Java programs are failing with errors
about timezones e.g.

java.lang.RuntimeException: org.apache.jasper.JasperException:
javax.el.ELException: java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find
resource for bundle java.util.PropertyResourceBundle, key timezone.GMT

The links in /usr/share/javazi timezone files were pointing at nothing

Workaround: 
 apt-get install --reinstall tzdata-java
