• weird tzdata version numbers

    From Harald Dunkel@21:1/5 to All on Sun Dec 8 20:00:01 2024
    Hi folks,

    version number for tzdata in bullseye is 2024b-0+deb11u1, but
    for bookworm it is still 2024a-0+deb12u1. This seems weird.
    Shouldn't the bookworm version number be "newer" than the bullseye
    version?


    Regards

    Harri

    Perhaps you're missing the bookworm-updates source? It's optional,
    but recommended.
