[Bug 1901020] Re: new upstream release 2020d

[Steve Langasek]

Hello Brian, or anyone else affected,

Accepted tzdata into groovy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/2020d-1ubuntu1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
groovy to verification-done-groovy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-groovy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: tzdata (Ubuntu Groovy)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-groovy

Title:
  new upstream release 2020d

Status in tzdata package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in tzdata source package in Groovy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  New upstream version, affecting the following future timestamps:
    - Fiji starts DST later than usual, on 2020-12-20.
    - Palestine ends DST earlier than predicted, on 2020-10-24.

  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.
