It looks like we now have to download tzcode2013e.tar.gz and run:
tar -xf tzcode2013e.tar.gz tar -xf tzdata2013e.tar.gz gawk -f leapseconds.awk > leap-seconds.list > leapsecondsas the first part of installing timezone data. The leapseconds file is no longer included in the tzdata file.
That looks like a bug to me. Either leapseconds.awk needs to be included in the tzdata tarball, or the generated leapseconds file does. I'll report this upstream, and suggest for now that we don't bother with this one; the package is updated regularly enough that a fix will be available upstream shortly.

Did you report this? If so, did you get a reply?
Yes, but I only remembered about it today. I'll update this ticket when I get any feedback.

tzdata-2013f is now current, but tzdata2013f.tar.gz contains neither leapseconds.awk nor leapseconds. The announcement mentions a change to leapseconds.awk, but that is in tzcode2013f.tar.gz.

I lean towards just downloading tzcode$version.tar.gz and using the instructions in comment 1.

The leapseconds change missed that release. It'll be in the next one.

It is there now. I saw it released today as I was preparing CLFS-GIT for package freeze.
Sincerely,

Indeed, it is there, but no announcement yet. We can update at any time.
