[Bug 1900436] Re: new upstream release 2020b

[Sebastien Bacher]

Unsure which serie is targetted there but the default format change in
the new version is triggering a libglib issue which was fixed in
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/commit/6ec67cd3 so that's
something to resolve with the update

Title:
  new upstream release 2020b

Status in tzdata package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  There is a new upstream release of tzdata, 2020b, which includes the
  following:

    * New upstream release, affecting past and future timestamps:
      - Canada's Yukon changes to -07 on 2020-11-01.
      - Casey, Antarctica is at +08 in winter and +11 in summer.
      - Correct several transitions for Hungary for 1918/1983.

  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 needed to be greped for in
  /usr/share/zoneinfo/). [For example: "zdump -v Africa/Casablanca".]
  This is compared to the same output after the updated package got
  installed. If those are different the verification is considered done.
