+tzleap - leap-seconds.list from tzdb (zoneinfo)
+
+This package installs the leap-seconds.list file to the standard path
+expected by some software:
+
+ /usr/share/zoneinfo/leap-seconds.list
+
+The IANA keeps the data and code used to create the Time Zone Database,
+("tz", "tzdb", "zoneinfo").
+
+ https://www.iana.org/time-zones
+
+This file comes from the commit for a tagged release from the
+maintainer's repo:
+
+ https://github.com/eggert/tz
+
+Slackware installs the current glibc-zoneinfo-* package, but does not
+include the leap-seconds.list file.
