<![CDATA[Timezone updates for tzdata 2026e]]>Wondering if we can get a patch pushed for xcp-ng that will add the new timezone rules for Alberta, BC, Manitoba?

The tzdata 2026e version has all the new rules but our hosts report they are still on older version and xen orchestra shows no patches available after I recently checked for and applied all available updates to 8.3.
