I just learned that Ubuntu Noble (24.04) decided to intentionally split the tzdata package. Old-style links such as US/Eastern are no longer included by default, but are available in the tzdata-legacy package instead. Just thought I'd share. I wonder if other distributions / platforms / libraries will follow suit. What do y'all think?
