  * Correct timezone updates on tzdata configuration:
    - Fix updating US/Indiana-Starke to America/Indiana/Knox

Version: 2023c-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 2023-05-31 01:07:04 UTC

  tzdata (2023c-0ubuntu0.20.04.2) focal; urgency=medium

  * Build tzdata with PACKRATLIST=zone.tab. In combination with
    PACKRATDATA=backzone (which is used since 2023c-0ubuntu0.20.04.1), time
    zones that differ pre-1970 and had been resurrected will not incur changes
    to data from 1970 on. This also removes Asia/Hanoi again. (LP: #2017999)
  * Add an autopkgtest test case for post-1970 symlink consistency
  * Update debconf template and translations
