Title:
  tzdata package contains invalid entry for Asia/Novosibirsk

Status in tzdata package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Ubuntu version: 16.04.6

  Problem: in the latest release of tzdata (2019a-0ubuntu0.16.04) the
  entry for Asia/Novosibirsk consists of text file with the below line
  only:

  Asia/Novosibirsk

  Apart from not working as /etc/localtime, it also creates cryptic
  errors in other packages (such as PHP complaining on invalid date/time
  database).

  After I replaced the above file with the one from Ubuntu 18.04.2
  tzdata's latest release, the error was gone.
