Bug#1043250: tzdata: bring back top-level UTC
Benjamin Drung dixit: >Can you point to examples for it? Most of these cases should probably >use TZ=UTC0 which work without having any timezone data files. Except that tzif files contain more than DST info, such as the name of the zone, but also leap second information (not in Debian currently), which TZ=UTC0 would lose, therefore it’s not an option. I’m using that heavily, for example. >> A second candidate, although less used recently, is the top-level >> GMT symlink. > >I haven't used GMT myself and I am not aware of any users. Do you know Yeah, me either, I was guessing legacy scripts. >codesearch.debian.net. I’m much more concerned about scripts and other stuff that people have locally on their systems, especially portable stuff, than Debian package content here. >Why isn't Etc/UTC an alternative to UTC? It’s not as portable, it binds to the Olson database whereas an otherwise unqualified UTC is pretty standard. Worse, if Etc/UTC is not available, the fallback makes it assume Etc, not UTC, as timezone name. bye, //mirabilos -- “It is inappropriate to require that a time represented as seconds since the Epoch precisely represent the number of seconds between the referenced time and the Epoch.” -- IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993 (POSIX) Section B.2.2.2

Can you point to examples for it? Most of these cases should probably use TZ=UTC0 which work without having any timezone data files. Moving it back will be fine to unbreak those cases. I searched for TZ=UTC on codesearch.debian.net and all hits that I looked at were false positives for Python code that uses tz=utc (where utc = datetime.UTC). > A second candidate, although less used recently, is the top-level > GMT symlink. I haven't used GMT myself and I am not aware of any users. Do you know packages that use/hardcode GMT? I haven't found TZ=GMT on codesearch.debian.net. > These are bound to be hardcoded in so many places, and Etc/UTC is > *not* a substitute, nor is running that without the files (in some > corner cases).

This is purely an upstream issue, and for keeping consistency across distributions, Debian will not change the output of 'locale -a' without an upstream change. Therefore the best is to report the bug upstream [1], so that you can also provide answers directly. Please mention the bug number here so that we can track the issue. Thanks.

Bug#1043243: libc-bin: locale displayed as .utf8 instead of the correct .UTF-8
Package: libc-bin Version: 2.36-9+deb12u1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, When I run `locale -a` I get output such as: C C.utf8 POSIX en_US.utf8 However, the correct names of the UTF-8 locales are supposed to be hyphenated according to the standard, and uppercase according to convention: C.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8 Musl (alpine linux) shows the locales correctly. The canonical UTF-8 is preferable to the utf8 synonym (if it can be called a synonym, utf8 is not defined by IANA). It is especially important that the C.UTF-8 locale contains the hyphen. If you wish to see what the canonical character encoding is for a locale, you can run for any locale `LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 locale charmap` and it will output UTF-8. A lot of additional information can be found here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/605770/is-the-utf8-in-en-us-utf8-a-canonical-character-set/605777#605777 that post explains what glibc is doing and why it is incorrect in doing that. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-10-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages libc-bin depends on: ii libc6 2.36-9+deb12u1 Versions of packages libc-bin recommends: ii manpages 6.03-2 libc-bin suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

Bug#1036104: tzdata.zi has a typo in the backported Egypt DST rules
Ping - this is still present in 2021a-1+deb11u10 (bullseye). Also, would it be possible for the "version 2021a" string in /usr/share/zoneinfo/tzdata.zi to be updated when you backport changes to that file? The 2021a-1+deb11u10 version of that file contains a number of backported changes from 2023c (such as Egypt DST changes) but an application that compares a tzdata.zi file with "version 2022a" to the 2021a-1+deb11u10 one with "version 2021a" will conclude that the latter is outdated and the former should be used. However, the 2022a file would not contain the Egypt DST changes, and the "2021a" from 2021a-1+deb11u10 actually does contain them. Could you add some kind of Debian-specific discriminator to the file? E.g. use "# version 2021a-1+deb11u10" ? That would still sort lexicographically before 2022a despite being newer, but it would at least allow an application to distinguish between 2021a-1+deb11u10 and 2021a-1+deb11u9. This is important for the GCC C++ standard library, which inspects that version line to determine if the file on disk has been updated and should be reparsed. A long-running application will not pick up the changes to your /usr/share/zoneinfo/tzdata.zi file if a sysadmin updates the tzdata package, because the version line doesn't change when you update it.
