    - debian/patches/tzdata-2021b-tests.patch: Fix TestCalendar function
      in source/test/cintltst/ccaltst.c and TestGenericAPI in
      source/test/intltest/tztest.cpp to accept tz.version with longer
      string size to prevent tests from failing.
    - debian/patches/skip-tztests.patch: Skip specific Time Zones tests in
      TestAliasedNames and TestCanonicalID functions in
      source/test/intltest/tztest.cpp. They don't match with data from

Title:
  fail to build from source

Status in icu package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When building ICU package from source, Time Zones tests are failing, leading to a build failure.
  This is happening because for Ubuntu, ICU uses tzdata package to retrieve Time Zone information
  And, tzdata is updated but ICU tests are not.

  The tests that are failing are:
  1)TestAliasedNames, TestCanonicalID:
           TestAliasedNames {
           different at 8
           
        
           } ERRORS (1) in TestAliasedNames
        
           TestCanonicalID {
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(America/Coral_Harbour) returned America/Coral_Harbour expected:America/Cayman
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(America/Coral_Harbour) returned America/Coral_Harbour expected:America/Cayman
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(America/Coral_Harbour) returned America/Coral_Harbour expected:America/Cayman
        
           } ERRORS (3) in TestCanonicalID

  -- These does not have a fix in upstream and need to be fixed (hirsute
  and focal).

  There are other issues that have fixes in upstream and need to be patched:
  2) TestGenericAPI
           TestGenericAPI {
           FAIL: getTZDataVersion returned 2021a3
        
           } ERRORS (1) in TestGenericAPI

  -- https://github.com/unicode-org/icu/commit/7561cb28 need to be
  patched (hirsute and focal)

  3) TestCanonicalID
           TestCanonicalID {
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(Australia/Hobart) returned Australia/Hobart expected:Australia/Currie
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(Australia/Tasmania) returned Australia/Hobart expected:Australia/Currie
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(Australia/Hobart) returned Australia/Hobart expected:Australia/Currie
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(Australia/Tasmania) returned Australia/Hobart expected:Australia/Currie
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(Australia/Hobart) returned Australia/Hobart expected:Australia/Currie
           FAIL: getCanonicalID(Australia/Tasmania) returned Australia/Hobart expected:Australia/Currie
        
           } ERRORS (6) in TestCanonicalID

  -- https://github.com/unicode-org/icu/commit/25eb1510 need to be
  patched (focal)
