[Bug 1995864] Re: UnknownTimeZoneError: 'Europe/Kyiv' in python3-tz

[Benjamin Drung]

Underlying problem: bug #1996504

** Description changed:

  I install latest updates on my Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 and timezone has changed from Europe/Kiev to Europe/Kyiv, which caused error in my service:
  pytz.exceptions.UnknownTimeZoneError: 'Europe/Kyiv'
  
  The problem exists on:
  Ubuntu 20.04 python3-tz version - 2019.3-1
  Ubuntu 22.04 with version of python3-tz - 2022.1-1.
  The problem is solved for kinetic release. Could you please add 'Europe/Kyiv' timezone for previous releases.
+ 
+ Test case:
+ 
+ ```
+ #!/usr/bin/python3
+ from pytz import timezone
+ print(timezone('Europe/Kyiv'))
+ ```
