Bug#1124006: installation-reports: Argentina's time zone doesn't work in the Debian installer

As far as I can see, that was triggered by tzdata's splitting legacy
names into a separate package:

  https://salsa.debian.org/glibc-team/tzdata/-/commit/81fcc2bdf2cc464f24aee7524c476d82bcbcbf9a

which was published in 2023c-8 (even if some small parts of it were
reverted in 2023c-9 and 2023c-10), during the trixie release cycle, so
bookworm should be unaffected.

And indeed, on my up-to-date bookworm system, I'm seeing these four:

  /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires
  /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Buenos_Aires
  /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Kiev
  /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Kyiv

while a trixie devel chroot only has:

  /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires
  /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Kyiv

(I failed to mention this in my initial reply but of course I'm taking
both fixes…)


Cheers,
