Yeh, this is presumably so Apple can ship TZ updates without changing the sealed /usr:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 25 Apr 30 15:12 /usr/share/zoneinfo -> /var/db/timezone/zoneinfo/
Anyway, I've added this to my bob config:
{ action = "copy", dir = "/var/db/timezone" },
and now it builds fine. The next published results should reflect this.
