Package tzdata
Version 2021a-0+deb8u5 (jessie), 2021a-0+deb9u5 (stretch)

This update includes the changes in tzdata 2022b. Notable changes are:

Iran plans to stop observing DST permanently, after it falls back on 2022-09-21.
Chile’s 2022 DST start is delayed from September 4 to September 11.
Note that for jessie, the tzdata-java package which was built for Java 7 is no longer provided, as Java 7 is no longer supported.

For Debian 8 jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 2021a-0+deb8u5.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 2021a-0+deb9u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your tzdata packages.
