[Bug 2096974] Re: tzdata-2024b-0ubuntu0.24.04 makes std::chrono unusable

[Taylor Brown]

Works for me! After

wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tzdata/tzdata_2024b-1ubuntu2.2_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i tzdata_2024b-1ubuntu2.2_all.deb

c++ lines with

std::chrono::locate_zone("America/New_York")

no longer throw an error such as

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  std::chrono::tzdb: cannot locate zone: America/New_York
Aborted (core dumped)
