[Florian Schlichting <fsfs@debian.org>]

Hi Adrian,

are you aware of this regression in stretch-security, can you fix this
soonish (it leaves several hundred lines in my log every hour) and/or
leave a comment in the bug?

thanks,
Florian

Subject: Bug#974899: libdatetime-timezone-perl: Inconsistent Olson versions within Timezone data

Package: libdatetime-timezone-perl
Version: 1:2.09-1+2020d
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

There seems to be an internally inconsistency in this package in that
the Olson versions defined in timezones are inconsistent:

% dpkg -L libdatetime-timezone-perl | xargs grep olson_version 2>/dev/null | cut -d' ' -f3 | sort | uniq -c
      2
    175 {'2019c'}
    185 {'2020d'}

This leads to warnings appearing:

Loaded DateTime::TimeZone::Europe::London, which is from a different version (2020d) of the Olson database than this installation of DateTime::TimeZone (2019c).
