[Bug 1995864] [NEW] UnknownTimeZoneError: 'Europe/Kyiv' in python3-tz

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Benjamin Drung (bdrung):

I install latest updates on my Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 and timezone has changed from Europe/Kiev to Europe/Kyiv, which caused error in my service:
pytz.exceptions.UnknownTimeZoneError: 'Europe/Kyiv'

The problem exists on:
Ubuntu 20.04 python3-tz version - 2019.3-1
Ubuntu 22.04 with version of python3-tz - 2022.1-1.
The problem is solved for kinetic release. Could you please add 'Europe/Kyiv' timezone for previous releases.

Test case:

```
#!/usr/bin/python3
from pytz import timezone
print(timezone('Europe/Kyiv'))
```
