[Bug 2052739] Please test proposed package

[Andreas Hasenack]

Hello Benjamin, or anyone else affected,

Accepted tzdata into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/2024a-0ubuntu0.22.04 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-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. 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 Focal)
       Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed-focal

  tzdata 2024a release

Status in tzdata source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed
Status in tzdata source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed
Status in tzdata source package in Mantic:

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  The 2024a release contains the following changes:

  * Kazakhstan unifies on UTC+5 beginning 2024-03-01.
  * Palestine springs forward a week later after Ramadan.
  * zic no longer pretends to support indefinite-past DST.
  * localtime no longer mishandles Ciudad Juárez in 2422.

  [ Test Plan ]

  Test cases were added to the autopkgtest to cover the testing:

  * python: test_2024a
  * python-icu: test_2024a (only for focal and newer)

  So the test plan is to check that the autopkgtest succeeds.

  [ Other Info ]

  The autopkgtest for chrony is flaky on jammy and newer (see bug
  #2002910).
