Thanks for pointing me to the package. Turns out it was intentional:

A caveat to Swift developers using official Docker Ubuntu images in the
future.

Looks like timezone files are in the ‘tzdata’ package. Maybe it got
uninstalled or was never installed as part of the base. An ‘apt-get install
tzdata’ might fix it.

      That's odd. Maybe my ubuntu:16.04 image is outdated or something, but

      It looks like it's /usr/share/zoneinfo on all Ubuntu versions:

      alblue.local[~]$ docker run -it --rm ubuntu:14.04 find /usr -name
      zone.tab
      /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab
      alblue.local[~]$ docker run -it --rm ubuntu:16.04 find /usr -name
      zone.tab
      /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab
      alblue.local[~]$ docker run -it --rm ubuntu:16.10 find /usr -name
      zone.tab
      /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab

      This is the same that's coming from CFTimeZone.c:

      
https://github.com/apple/swift-corelibs-foundation/blob/2611dcd0d9b91fecace537838294bd85f0220503/CoreFoundation/NumberDate.subproj/CFTimeZone.c#L36-L39


      Is it possible that the MacOS header is being included and defining
      TZDIR before the CFTimeZone.c file is compiled?

                              Specifically, on a Travis matrix build using
                              Swift 3.1.1 on a Ubuntu 16.04 docker image
                              running inside a Travis 14.04 VM.

                              The issue was specific to the Ubuntu 16.04
                              docker image; when I tested in Ubuntu 16.04
                              OS as a guest VM, the issue went away.

                                                      Sierra. Compare and
                                                      contrast:

                                                      
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/tzfile.h

                                                      #define TZDIR
                                                      "/usr/share/zoneinfo"

                                                      so I guess if I
                                                      installed the High
                                                      Sierra beta it would
                                                      work OK.

                                                      I hacked CF to force
                                                      it to
                                                      use /usr/share/zoneinfo
 and TestFoundation
                                                      is much happier, but
                                                      that's not a

   I also saw this error, I think its because the TZDIR is different in the
   headers shipped with Xcode 9. Maybe the location of the timezone
   directory was moved between Sierra and High Sierra. What version of
   macOS are you testing on?

   If it has indeed moved between 10.12 and 10.13 it may require a runtime
   version check to dynamically return TZDIR.

                           Hi,

                           I'm seeing quite a lot of tests failing when
                           running the
                           TestFoundation target in Xcode. The failures are
                           timezone related.
                           Most simply, the code

                           let timeZone = TimeZone(abbreviation: "GMT")

                           is returning nil.

                           Walking through the CF code which sets things
                           up, it seems to be
                           trying to read the timezone database from
                           /var/db/timezone/zoneinfo/zone.tab which doesn't
                           exist on my macOS
                           system.

                           /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab is there and seems
                           to be the right
                           location (?), but CF is picking up TZDIR from
                           tzfile.h which says:

                           #define TZDIR "/var/db/timezone/zoneinfo"

                           Any thoughts? I feel like I'm missing something
                           obvious and have gone
                           too far down the rabbit hole.
