IANA TZ Data update

This release of Liberica JDK 8u462 upgrades the in-tree copy of the IANA timezone database to 2025b. The following are the key changes of this update:

Future Timestamps:

New Time Zone:

A new time zone, America/Coyhaique, is created for Chile’s Aysén Region, which will now observe UTC−03 year-round (no daylight saving time).

  • This diverges from America/Santiago starting March 20, 2025.

  • Aysén will not change clocks on April 5, 2025.

  • This aligns Aysén with Magallanes Region.

Past Timestamps:

Iran Time Change Correction:

Iran changed from UTC+04 to UTC+03:30 on November 10, 1978, not at the end of the year as previously recorded.

Code Fixes:

Improved behavior for the zic tool:

  • It no longer creates invalid symlinks when using -l with multiple arguments.

  • A buffer underflow issue is resolved.

For more information, see JDK-8352716.
