Hi,

Getting error while trying to extract:

FYI, “make tarballs” now fails on macOS:

                        tar `if tar --numeric-owner --owner=0 --group=0 --mode=go+u,go-w --sort=name --version >/dev/null 2>&1; then echo --numeric-owner --owner=0 --group=0 --mode=go+u,go-w --sort=name; else :; fi` -cf - tzdb-2016g | lzip -9 > tzdb-2016g.tar.lz
/bin/sh: lzip: command not found
make[1]: *** [tzdb-2016g.tar.lz] Error 127
make: *** [tarballs] Error 2


FWIW, it finishes the legacy formats first.

Can we please have a separate target that builds just the legacy tarballs? Yes, I can build the tzdata and tzcode tarball targets separately, but a combo target would be nice.

Thanks,
Debbie

Yes, release 2016g (which has the recent change for Turkey) is final and will not be changed. Any further changes will go into 2016h or 2017a or whatever. Unfortunately ICANN is backlogged and so the 2016g tarballs have not yet been published on the iana.org<http://iana.org> website. I plan to ping them in a few days if they are not up by then. In the meantime you can get a copy of 2016g as an attachment to my earlier email to the tz list, archived here:
