[Bug 2031838] [NEW] ftbfs with tzdata >= 2023c-8

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

Public bug reported:

With
https://code.launchpad.net/~mwhudson/ubiquity/+git/ubiquity/+merge/449391
applied, the ubiquity build now fails with:

test_city_entry (test_timezone.TimezoneTests.test_city_entry) ... /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mock/mock.py:1238: PyGIWarning: Soup was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Soup', '2.4') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.
  __import__(import_path)
Could not understand timezone Canada/Eastern
Could not understand timezone US/Eastern
FAIL

which is presumably related to the deprecation of these timezone names.
I can think of a few ways to fix this (build-depend on tzdata-legacy,
remove the functionality being tested here as these names have been
deprecated for ages, probably some other things...) but I don't know
which is right so I'm filing a bug.
