Hi Team

As decided by Sudan Government to change time zone from GMT+3 to GMT+2, we were testing TZ update from 2017b --> 2017c and we encountered the following error :

Linux TZ version : 2017b --> 2017c ... Failed
| "backzone", line 149: duplicate zone name Africa/Juba (file "africa", line 1107)
| "backzone", line 150: input line of unknown type
| "backzone", line 151: input line of unknown type

On little debugging we found that in former version there was a link between Africa/Khartoum & Africa/Juba zones in africa file and Africa/Juba zone entry existed in "backzone" file but in later version same zone entry of Africa/Juba exists in both files ie "africa" & "backzone", causing trouble.

Looking forward for an acknowledgement.
