I can reproduce the failure in a bionic, jammy, and oracular chroot: ``` $ schroot-wrapper -p tzdata -c jammy -u root (jammy)root@host:~# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/EST5EDT /etc/localtime (jammy)root@host:~# DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg-reconfigure tzdata (jammy)root@host:~# echo $? 10 ```
This is a bug that should be fixed. dpkg-reconfigure should not fail on those legacy timezones. Upstream dropped those legacy timezones in the 2024b release. So I recommend switching to the country/city timezones (like US/Central) or to the Etc/GMT* zones in case you want to ignore DST. The current plan is to keep these legacy timezones in place for the stable release (to not enforce those changes to our customers on the stable releases). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2070285 Title: package tzdata 2024a-3ubuntu1.1 failed to install/upgrade: installed tzdata package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tzdata/+bug/2070285/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
