[Bug 1909698] Re: new upstream release 2020f

[Brian Murray]

** Description changed:

- https://www.iana.org/time-zones tzdata 2020f already exists, please
- update the package.
+ New upstream version, affecting the following future timestamp:
+   - Volgograd switches to Moscow time on 2020-12-27 at 02:00.
+ 
+ The ICU timezone data has not yet been updated upstream so those changes
+ will be included in a later SRU.
+ 
+ Verification is done with 'zdump'. The first timezone that gets changed
+ in the updated package is dumped with "zdump -v
+ $region/$timezone_that_changed" (this needed to be greped for in
+ /usr/share/zoneinfo/). [For example: "zdump -v Africa/Casablanca".] This
+ is compared to the same output after the updated package got installed.
+ If those are different the verification is considered done.
+ 
+ $region/$timezone = Europe/Volgograd
+ 
+ Additionally, previous SRU removed the "old" SystemV timezones, so we
+ should ensure that they are kept. Subsequently, these should be checked
+ for using the following:
+ 
+ zdump -v SystemV/MST7
+ zdump -v America/Phoenix
+ 
+ The information returned by SystemV/MST7 should be included in
+ America/Phoenix's output.
+

  The ICU timezone data has not yet been updated upstream so those

  $region/$timezone = Europe/Volgograd

  Additionally, previous SRU removed the "old" SystemV timezones, so we
  should ensure that they are kept. Subsequently, these should be
