On my systems where things fail, /etc/localtime is a relative symlink
pointing to ../usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin. Manually replacing this
with an absolute link allows the tzdata update to proceed. Sadly, this
is not an option in a debspawn container (because that tool doesnt allow
manual tinkering with the container).
