Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

tzdata 2023c still says that Jerusalem had a 3 hours offset:

```
$ LC_ALL=C TZ=Asia/Jerusalem date -d "2015-09-24 19:20:38 Z"
Thu Sep 24 22:20:38 IDT 2015
```

So your clock was set incorrectly (two hour offset).

** Changed in: tzdata (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid

** Summary changed:

- Wrong local time in tzdata
+ Wrong local time in tzdata for Asia/Jerusalem

Title:
  Wrong local time in tzdata for Asia/Jerusalem

Status in tzdata package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When running the following, I get the correct time zone, but incorrect
  local time:

  ~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

  Current default time zone: 'Asia/Jerusalem'
  Local time is now:      Thu Sep 24 22:20:38 IDT 2015.
  Universal Time is now:  Thu Sep 24 19:20:38 UTC 2015.

  The correct local time is, in fact, 20:20, so, apparently, the current
  version of tzdata in Precise is way off.
